Pros

Very relaxed working environment, almost too relaxed. This is great if you have a family and constantly need to work from home like people in my team. If however you are a graduate and want to learn face-to-face, it is not a great place to begin your career.

Cons

Some managers have no idea how to delegate work and have no interest in your personal development. Everything seems like it takes too much effort and time for example booking onto a training course.

Thanks for leaving a review and your honest feedback. We encourage a flexible work policy designed to promote a healthy work/life balance, which is good for everyone, not just those with families! Most of the graduates I have met at ARM love the hands on experience and autonomy/trust that they are given. That said, others are more productive in a formal, structured environment, so it's a matter of determining what works best for you and your line manager. Communication is key between any employee and their line manager, so I highly encourage that you bring up your personal development with him/her in your next 1:1 session. They may not even realize what they are doing! I also recommend you to take a look at the Talent Development section on the ARM intranet, as that contains a wealth of information designed to help grow your career. -Rick C.
