Pros

If you belong to BAME and specifically if you are a Muslim you don't stand a chance to even get a job at ARM! In technology world its 50 years ahead of others but in inclusivity and diversity ARM is still is 1970's.

Cons

BAME and Muslims should not apply for positions at ARM.

We pride ourselves on having an inclusive working environment, that enables you to be yourself. Our people are exceptionally diverse, from a variety of backgrounds, countries, ethnicities and religions and I’m confident in writing this, as a female of Muslim heritage. I appreciate not everyone has the same experience and for that very reason, I would like the opportunity to follow up with you. You certainly haven’t had an experience that we would expect, and I’d like to get to the bottom of why. Would you be so kind as to reach out to me directly aylin.halil@arm.com to discuss further?

Pros

Bonuses, healthcare, pension contributions, decent canteen facilities.

Cons

Company people structure is too tall, fragmented and complicated. Pigeon hole working environment. Too many managers making the decisions, politics and red tape stall decision process and small changes take far too long to implement. Many teams too focused on deadlines and not seeing the overall picture. Pay does not scale with responsibility.

Pros

Relaxed work environment, great quality of life. e.g finishing at 16:00 on a regular basis.

Cons

Taking design authority guidance from IT Architects that have less knowledge than I do with Windows and server\cloud infrastructure. Look up some of the Architects for the company on linkedin you will see next to no technical certifications and a career history certainly that shows they are out of their depth. Having to take advice from these people that know far less than I do is not typical in other organisations.
