      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Technology leading semiconductor company. Has many of the original engineers who joined ARM during its start-up days still working actively which gives credibility to the objectives defined by the company. Have seen and worked with some brilliant engineers which is a pleasure. But this number is not increasing unfortunately. A well designed work life balance and trusts the employees to do their job. Open and liberal work atmosphere which encourages collaboration.

      Cons

      IT infrastructure still immature like a start-up and impacts projects negatively. India center has quite lot of middle/senior management kludge who lack technical depth for their position and are just paper pushers and resist change to status qua. Does not believe in homegrown talent and no good growth prospects as it favours getting people from outside to fill positions, Due to expansion rigor in hiring sacrificed resulting in people with mediocre skills ending up with responsible positions.

      Thanks for the feedback and advice. You are absolutely correct that we need to scale talent. As noted in previous responses, we are expanding our IT department and infrastructure in all offices to match in the 2nd half of 2014.

      Pros

      ARM CPUs are in just about every mobile device. Very interesting work in cutting edge processes. Great growth potential, great benefits, great stock RSUs, lots of vacation, and extra European holidays.

      Cons

      Unfortunately I worked in the PIPD (Physical IP Div) which was formerly Artisan. Management realized they made a mistake buying it but couldn't admit it. They finally sold my group to another company.

      Pros

      Excellent work-life balance. Competitive pay. Get to learn something new almost every day. Good mix of experience. Can work on industry-defining technology if you show the enthusiasm.

      Cons

      Mid-management in India is filled with uncompetitive yes-men and blame pushers. HR policies are shockingly bad. Workload balancing is not managed properly. IT needs an overhaul.
