Pros

The people are wonderful and even as an individual contributor you are given a voice - a way to make a real impact. Compensation is great. Facilities are nice. Easy to take vacation and actually step away from email!

Cons

Intense pace, always lots going on (can be good and can be a bit much at times) Some growing pains - systems need to develop, technology/support - it'll get there

Thanks for leaving a review! ARM employs some of the brightest people in the industry, which also extends to the employees in our People Team. Though the pace can be strenuous at times, we truly believe in work/life balance with generous PTO/holidays as well as a flexible working environment. Every company always has room to improve, and we're aggressively investing in the systems needed to help our employees succeed. I hope that your sabbatical was great, and you're already that much closer to your second one! -Rick C. Employer Brand and Social Media Specialist
