Pros

Not much. Average work. No work for intelligent people. They have created a new software design methodology, popularly known as Hit-n-trial methodology.

Cons

Work is monotonous and doesn't involve any intellect. New managers know this, so they are impose all work to sub-ordinates and enjoy whole day of facebook, and other personal businesses.

Thanks for leaving a review. I'm sad to read that you are not enjoying working at the ARM Bangalore office. If you feel that your current work is not challenging, I would ask that you speak to your line manager to see what other projects that you help out with. If you do not feel comfortable speaking with your line manager, please reach out to your HR business partner, who can also help address your concerns. Unless you speak up and let us know of issues, we won't know what is going on besides reading these reviews. We also have the ARM Employee Survey being sent out in the next few weeks, so please keep a lookout for that, so you can voice your concerns there. That being said, I do pass along these reviews to the various regional teams, so if things do change in the future, please consider revising the review. Employees can leave a review once a year! -Rick C. Social Recruiting Manager
