Pros

I started one and half years ago at ARM and I like it! The company treats engineers with high respect and offers competitive rewards and benefits. The IoT business unit I work for is doing truly full-stack development, from embedded to backend and web front and everything in-between so my skill set is almost guaranteed to stay future-proof. Competent colleagues and the office location at the very center of Oulu don't hurt either. All in all, I very much enjoy my position as Software Engineer at ARM.

Cons

The future of IoT business is uncertain, and the fast growing office brings in some challenges.

Thanks for leaving a review, and it's good to see one from our Oulu office! Engineers are the core of our company, both from a hardware and software point of view. One of our Software Directors spoke to the People team last week and gave a great analogy: "Hardware without software is just really expensive sand while software without hardware is just thought." The two must work together in order for ARM to be successful as we move forward with our goal to over 1 Trillion connected devices in the next 20 years! -Rick C.

Thanks for leaving a review! Free lunch vouchers are a trend that some (tech) companies have or are moving towards. It is an added benefit for the employee, is an option that is being considered in the Flex pot mentioned earlier this year for ARM employees. We try to keep the benefits across ARM equally to all employees, so the issue comes in that the cost of feeding a smaller office is much easier than the other larger offices. -Rick C.

Thanks for leaving a review. Looking at your review more granularly, you give us an overall rating of 3 stars, yet rate 5 stars on everything but Comp & Benefits. I'm surprised that you found the work not very exciting, as most everyone I talk with in my office travels are fairly positive on the work they are doing, especially given the challenging nature of the work. Seeing as you are no longer with ARM, I do encourage you to expand your skillset at your current place of employment and possibly come back to ARM in the future as a boomerang hire and continue to help grow the ARM Ecosystem! -Rick C.
