Glad you’re enjoying the work, culture and environment at Arm, your contribution over the past few years is appreciated. You’re right that there’s strong focus on developing Saudi talent, in line with national priorities, but that shouldn’t come at the expense of fair opportunity. If you feel your growth has stalled, speak with your manager or the People team so they can help you map a path forward. Pressure is part of fast-paced teams, but you shouldn’t be carrying that alone, raise it early so support can be put in place.

Thanks for taking the time to reflect on your experience. It’s good to hear you appreciated the technology and the strength of the Arm brand – both are key to the impact we aim to have globally. What you’ve shared about politics and compliance is concerning. That’s not how we operate or what we expect from our leaders and teams. If you’re willing, we’d value more detail so we can look into this further – please reach out to glassdoor@arm.com. Every voice matters, and your perspective can help us uphold the standards we set for ourselves.

Glad to hear you’re part of a strong and capable team – the people around you make a huge difference to the day-to-day experience at Arm. It’s disappointing to hear you haven’t had the same confidence in local leadership. We expect managers to bring both expertise and support, and your feedback suggests that hasn’t been your experience. If you haven’t already, consider raising this through your manager’s manager or the People team, your input helps us improve how teams are led and supported.
