Pros

Growing company Nice office Flexible working Interesting work usually and opportunities if you make them Smart people

Cons

Pay outside of engineering is lack luster. Shares can make up for it. You are a second class citizen outside of the core business. Development opportunities for senior individuals with tenure are limited. This is because, and I quote, ' optics are bad' for those who have had past investment. There are two reasons for this in my experience. Others may have other experiences. 1) tenure and training already recieved. In otherwords if you have been with the company a while, continous improvement is not considered for you. 2) If you dont fit the DEI profile don't bother. In other words, if you are white male the optics of investment in you could be considered negative. Despite being told 'Be your brilliant self' as a core value, the reality of execution is much different, and varies between group.

Thank you for such a thoughtful and candid review. It’s clear you’ve contributed a great deal over the years, and we truly value the perspective of someone with such long-standing experience at Arm. We’re glad to hear you continue to find the work interesting and the flexibility supportive. At the same time, we take seriously the concerns you’ve raised around progression and development – especially for those in non-engineering roles or with longer tenure. Everyone at Arm should have the opportunity to keep growing, and we’re actively working to ensure our approach to development and inclusion is consistent, fair, and based on individual potential, not perception.
