Pros

Excellent salaries, benefits, general culture and onsite amenities for UK software engineers.

Cons

Directors have significant autonomy to run their departments in their own way, this results in varied culture and inconsistent processes. While Arm corporate is great, be warned locally YMMV. In particular engineers with few or no management skills are promoted into senior management positions. Resulting in a lack of empathy and genuine care for their people.
