Pros: Amazing company culture Professional environment DEI Surrounded by talented engineers

Cons: The company is a bit bureaucratic when it comes to promotions and career progression.

Pros: It was good technical work in CPU architecture.

Cons: It was all good work with no cons.

Pros: Great benefits 4 week sabbatical every 4 years 4 weeks starting vacation, 5 weeks after 4 years 26 weeks of maternity leave, 8 weeks paternity leave Brilliant engineers that are genuinely helpful Strong advocate of diversity and inclusion Internal social network service allows us to be expressive Great stepping stone towards higher paying companies

Cons: Burn out. If you are an RTL/Verification/Performance engineer, then you now have to balance between working on multiple projects. When I first joined, engineers talked about life outside of Arm. Now all they talk about is how busy they are with no end in sight. A team that used to do monthly team lunches completely stopped and less time is spent improving the processes when we need it more than ever. Going away lunches for engineers who have been at Arm for 15+ years are more common than team lunches. Attrition. Top engineers are leaving including fellows. All of them are leaving to higher paying companies and HR and upper management said they have no plans to change our compensation because “people leave managers” and “no one mentioned compensation on their exit interview.” Innovation decline. That feeling of starting work on a new project is gone. Projects are now just adding features on existing designs. There’s no time to rewrite things that are out of date or to revisit things that could be worth improving upon.
