Pros

The flexible working policy is fantastic, allowing for a healthy work/life balance. The work is fast-paced and exciting, offering meaningful challenges and opportunities to grow. High challenge, high reward environment that encourages you to push boundaries. Flexible hours and generous volunteering policy that supports employees in making a positive social impact in their local community.

Cons

Occasional gaps in cross-functional communication can slow down projects or cause misalignment, though the company has recently been working to improve this as it continues to scale.

Thanks for sharing this, it’s great to hear that the pace, challenge and flexibility at Arm are hitting the right balance for you. We’re proud to offer the kind of environment where people can grow, make an impact and still have time for life beyond work, including volunteering in their communities. You’re right that scaling brings complexity, and we know cross-functional communication needs ongoing attention. It’s an area we’re actively investing in as we grow. Appreciate you being part of that evolution.

Pros

- the Budapest team has a uniquely great work culture - work on products that will be in the next generation of smart phones/smart appliances - lot of great technical development opportunities - lucrative equity based bonuses

Cons

- base pay is very mediocre, nobody would work here without the RSU bonus - recruiters do a horrible job of explaining the bonus system, make sure to calculate everything yourself before signing

Really appreciate you sharing this perspective – especially your view on the team culture in Budapest and the opportunities to shape the future of tech through our products. That blend of collaboration and technical challenge is what we strive for. We’re proud of our equity program and how it aligns long-term reward with impact, but we know it’s only effective if it’s clearly understood. Your comments about how it’s communicated are concerning, and we’ll take that seriously. If you’re open to it, please share more detail with the People team so we can improve how we onboard future candidates.

Great to hear you’re having a strong start and enjoying the culture and team in Bengaluru. It’s a fast-moving environment and we’re glad that’s resonating with you. Your point about cross-team connection is a good one. We want people to feel part of something bigger, even when focus and pace are high. We’ll pass on your suggestion about local events – it’s helpful and aligns with our commitment to building an inclusive, collaborative environment. On hybrid working, we aim to balance flexibility with the energy of in-person connection. If you haven’t already, share your thoughts with your manager or local People partner.
