Thanks for leaving a review, and it's good to see that you were able to develop your skills in a great work environment! As the company has grown rather quickly in the last few years, we acknowledge that we did not scale to provide more training opportunities for Team Leads and Managers to be more effective leaders. This has been addressed and we are actively improving the courses that our Talent and Development team has to offer Regarding pay, the base pay may not seem competitive, but when you factor in all the extra benefits such as the annual bonuses and former RSU program, the total rewards package is quite competitive. -Rick C.

Pros

Great advantage in IoT market. Also had a great ride in the mobile market. Great intellectual talent to work with.

Cons

Too heavily focused on technology and take too much time to make decisions around new market entry. Do not realize that software market entry is more competitive than their traditional market.

Thanks for leaving a review! With the recent Softbank acquisition, ARM will be accelerating growth in the IoT space. As a key player in this rapidly growing market, our engineers have the opportunity to make a huge difference, both from a hardware and software space. To those who don't know about ARM, we are seen more as a traditional hardware company, where in actuality we are 50% hardware and 50% software. We do need to shift focus a bit more towards the software market entry as you mentioned, and with the increase in headcount over the next 5 years, we hope to achieve just that! -Rick C.

Thanks for leaving a review! First, I want to to thank you for over 7 years of service at the ARM Bangalore office! That means you've been a part of ARM for over a quarter of our existence as a company! An excellent work/life balance at ARM is something we encourage all employees to strive towards, and will continue to do so, even post-Softbank acquisition. As mentioned in other reviews, the base salary is usually in the 75% band, meaning you can expect to make more than 75% of your peers in the industry and region. Once you factor in other benefits such as the annual bonus and the now former RSU program, the total rewards package is quite competitive. If you feel like the work has become repetitive and boring, please do visit the Internal Jobs board to see what roles you might want to explore, and at the very least, visit the ARM Talent Development Intranet page to see how we might be able to help improve your skill sets to advance your career! I do invite you to leave another review next year to see how things have progressed for you! -Rick C. Social Recruiting Manager
