Pros

Average salary and good benefits

Cons

Not woman-friendly and bad leadership; no real collaboration between teams; lots of talk about D&I but no real evidence it exists. Women make an average of 17% less than men.

Pros

Fast growing company. Great people to work with.

Cons

No room to grow. More and more responsibilities added to job. Salary increase barely enough to cover inflation. No appreciation from managers on hard work and additional work.

Thanks for leaving a review. With Softbank's acquisition of ARM, we are growing at an even faster pace than before, hiring across all functions and departments. New teams and structures are coming in, with opportunities for current employees to move to a new challenge within the company. Regarding salary increases, the majority of reviews in the company are considered 'High Performing' which means the salary increase will always be above annual inflation rate. If you've 'Exceeded Expectations', the salary increase will be higher, along with the bonus payout. It's an exciting time to be at ARM, and since you did leave a positive outlook of the company, we do hope that you will reconsider coming back to ARM in the future! -Rick C. Social Recruiting Manager

Pros

Brilliant staff. Plenty of opportunities to learn and grow.

Cons

Struggling with growth. A lot of position churn makes it difficult to plan projects and communicate effectively. Many projects understaffed in order to balance growth vs revenue which is understandable but stressful and limiting company performance.

Thanks for leaving a review! Even though we're growing at a rapid pace, we're not immune to growing pains. Balancing growth vs revenue like you said is a necessary though we try to limit doing so as much as possible. A challenge is changing the mindset of software candidates in the industry is more than just a hardware company, when in reality, we are about 50% software now! That being said, every company has attrition, though we are quite proud our attrition rate is one of the lowest in the tech industry! -Rick C. Social Recruiting Manager
