Great small company, now part of ARM

Pros

Very laid back independent work environment with a lot of very experienced people. Everyone does their job because they want to contribute to the company. Evidently it paid off for them since they have been acquired by ARM.

Cons

All the downsides of a small company. If you don't contribute well or you under-perform, that is more visible and has a greater affect on your coworkers and the company as a whole.

Thanks for leaving a review! We strive to make the work culture at ARM one that is inclusive and collaborative, so it's great to read that you felt it was a great working atmosphere! Depending on your role within ARM, it can be either technical or non-technical at all. If the work duties don't match the job description you applied for, that's something that should be addressed with your line manager. With the new AFDS tool, we encourage employees to have more frequent communication with their line manager so both parties are satisfied with work output as well as career progression. -Rick C. Social Recruiting Manager
