A wonderful history and a potentially very exciting future. Generally looked after exceptionally well, aside from continually running out of office space in Cambridge,

Cons

Very mixed management capability. Sharp divide between engineers and muggles.

Thanks for leaving your honest review. We are proud of our history and are just as excited about the future as you are! Have patience, as the new building space in Cambridge will be here before you know it. Managing employees is a skill that comes naturally to some people, but requires training for the majority of people. Even the best managers have room to improve, which is why we invest heavily in Talent Development. This is available to all employees across all locations, regardless of grade or function, and is supplemented by a subscription to Lynda.com, which all ARM employees have access to for free. ARM employs approximately 4:1 engineers to non-engineers, so I understand your concern for the divide. I've found that simply engaging with the engineering employees does wonders to bridge that gap. Remember, communication is key in any relationship, including amongst employees! Employees can leave a review once a year on Glassdoor, so I invite you to leave another review to next year to see where we have grown and where can still improve! -Rick C.
