Thanks for leaving a review. At over 4000+ employees, it can be difficult to keep the small company feel. Depending on what team you are on, it can feel overwhelming how large the organization can be. With SoftBank's acquisition of ARM, we have the unique opportunity to retain our brand and strategy to keep the company culture going forward. -Rick C. Social Recruiting Manager

Pros

What others mentioned Vacation, health Some people are good.

Cons

like other people mentioned that PIPD team is a very bad jobs experience. Nothing happens here in San Jose. Management keeps changing and now they have imported someone from outside group to manage key projects. Very poor and arrogant management. You don't learn anything here. Lots of politics and lots finger pointing.

Thanks for leaving a review. My apologies for a late response, as I generally try to respond to reviews in a timely manner. First, thank you for your over 5 years of service. If you are still with ARM, you will know that we recently restructured the organization in to two distinct groups: IPG and ISG. We have a lot of growth ahead of us, with the separation allowing us focus on growing the businesses independently of each other without the need to report to shareholders. Talent Development is an important part of ARM, and one that I feel that could use more recognition. There are numerous courses that you can take internally from the Talent Development intranet page to help develop any additional skills you require for your function or you can take external courses/conferences that are needed and get reimbursed by ARM. Additionally, as an ARM employee you have access to lynda.com, so you can also use that platform to learn new soft and hard skills, be it in management, public speaking or even coding in a new language. I do invite you to come back and leave another review in 4 more months, as Glassdoor allows users to leave a review once a year. Hopefully many of the comments you have will have already been addressed! -Rick C. Social Recruiting Manager

Pros

- Global impact across much of computing from mobile, TVs, automotive, microcontrollers and soon servers and IoT - Opportunities to travel and work with a massive distribution of customers across nearly all aspects of computing - Large opportunities to progress for those willing to work hard, but also support for those who wish to continue to perform well at their current positions - Great company culture around employee development and co-work to success. - Excellent work life balance especially sabbatical (4-week block of extra holiday every 4 years of service)

Cons

- A few growing pains due to recent growth - With increasing customers and commitments there is less time for spontaneous creativity (i.e. innovation)
