Thanks for sharing a senior perspective, it’s helpful context for others exploring a career at Arm. You’ve captured some of the strengths that set us apart: global collaboration, deep tech, and the opportunity to shape the future of compute. You’re also right that our scale and ecosystem can add complexity, and our pace can feel different to startup environments.
