Thanks for your review, great to hear you’re finding strong growth opportunities in VLSI. That blend of technical depth and future-focused work is what makes Arm such a compelling place to build a career. You’re right that we’re venturing into new areas, and with that comes a level of risk — but also big potential. We’re backing bold ideas with long-term vision, and it’s exciting to have engineers like you helping shape what comes next.

Glad to hear the vibe and environment in Cambridge are working well for you, that kind of atmosphere doesn’t happen by accident, and it’s great to see it reflected in your experience. We know the office location isn’t perfect for everyone, though we’ve tried to balance accessibility with creating a space that supports collaboration and focus. Thanks for being part of the team and for the impact you’re making.
