Pros

I've worked in the tech/semiconductor industry for a number of years, and ARM is hands down the best company I've worked for. Everyone you meet is ridiculously smart and is a specialist in their field, but they're not cocky about it and is willing to help each other help out. Most people's egos are checked at the door as we're all trying to do a great job. They also offer a really good health benefits and PTO policy, as well as a 4 week sabbatical after 4 years of service. Most other tech companies I know have gotten rid of theirs, so it's nice to see that this is still a nice perk to reward employees who stay in the company.

Cons

Not many cons. The new Austin campus is still a work in progress, but that's growing pains, and it's still much better than the previous location. There can be a bit of bureaucracy and approvals sometimes takes a long time.

Thanks for leaving a review! In a time when many tech companies are consolidating, scaling back or being acquired, ARM has been growing very rapidly, but with the right candidates who are experts in their field like you mentioned. Having great benefits definitely helps with attracting talent too, as the PTO and sabbatical are definitely two of my favorite perks in the company! As mentioned in other reviews, since we've grown so rapidly we have had some growing pains scaling so quickly. One of the pain points has been in policies and procedures though our Organizational Effectiveness team are implementing changes that will help streamline the bureaucracy that can sometimes be present in a company. -Rick C.
