Pros

Arm Norway and Arm ---------------------------- - Good work life balance - Interesting Job - Great engineering environment for brainstorming and innovation - Awesome package (short and long term) - Fantastic execs which are driving arm to the next level!!

Cons

Arm Norway (not Arm) ----------------------------- - Bad high/mid management environment for brainstorming and innovation - High/Mid managers/leaders are not competent, not well suited for decision making, driving as well as leading - High/Mid managers/leaders with low or no experience in leading, managing and taking decisions and most of all with the same background which makes diverse opinions and mind sets difficult to arise - Too many high/mid managers/leaders

Pros

Good for your CV. You have a salary.

Cons

Too much bureaucracy. Cliques and such.. There are senior people that have grown in the company disproportinally with the technically value. It is very difficult to deal with them since they have protection from higher up and they do whatever they can just to push their ego. Moreover, several employees have done no other job after graduating NTNU other than staying there.. So, we are talking about an arteriosclerotic establishment.. Good luck!

Pros

Good reputation, good welcome package

Cons

No flexible hybrid working - The company is using individual data from the entrance system to see who is coming to the office, resulting people want to quit since this also goes against data privacy policies ! In some Countries that ARM has offices that's even illegal by the government ... Poor salary compared to competition, not enough opportunities for promotion.

Thank you for your review. Arm, like any other business, is continually evaluating the most appropriate working practices across its global teams, with a focus on ensuring the most productive and positive experience for our people. We are committed to working in a flexible, hybrid way because we believe it’s the best way to build the Arm community while enabling personal choice and inclusion. Most of our people are based in an office and since 2022 have been required to attend a minimum of one or two days a week depending on the work they do, with many choosing to use the office more frequently than this. We have an exceptions process for those whose personal circumstances mean they have different needs. We are transparent with our people about what data we collect and how it is used, working with employee forums, representatives, and other bodies as necessary before reporting is introduced – you can read more on the privacy and data protection pages of the Legal intranet site. If you would like to help shape our evolving hybrid working approach, visit the Hybrid Working intranet site and contact a member of the team to be part of upcoming focus groups.
