Thanks for leaving a review! We're invested in developing processors and software tools that will shape the world of tomorrow, so that definitely keeps things interesting at ARM! Regarding your work/life balance, please do consider a conversation with your line manager to see what can be done to address that. We provide ample PTO to all employees, along with the 4-week sabbatical after 4 years of service specifically so employees are well rested and have enough sustained energy to get through the work day. -Rick C.

Pros

Constant opportunities to grow into new roles & responsibilities throughout the company and across geographies. Flexible work schedule and willingness to allow some off-site work for many/most roles.

Cons

Heavy culture of consensus decision making, which worked well for ARM when it was young, but these days it needs to better empower its people to make intelligent and informed decisions on their own.

Thanks for leaving a review and your over 8 years of service with ARM! We place a lot of trust and responsibility in our employees such as the flexible work schedule you mentioned. With that flexibility is also the empowerment to make decisions, though as a company grows the pressure of consensus decision making also grows which can slow down action to the point of inaction. To that end, the more frequent communications with your line manager via AFDS should help address this, as the two of you build trust to the point where he/she feels comfortable to let you execute on a decision. If you do have additional suggestions on how we can improve trust within ARM, please do reach out to your People Team Business Partner! -Rick C. Social Recruiting Manager
