Pros: Very supportive environment with lots of opportunities to learn and ask questions. Arm does a good job of moving people to new roles rather than laying them off. Work is almost always interesting and it is easy to see how what you're doing benefits others.

Cons: Internal communication about technical knowledge isn't that great. Documentation is patchy and most of the useful information is in people's heads. I frequently am given conflicting objectives from multiple "bosses". If you want to create or change a process, there's no one person to convince.

Pros: - Interesting work - People are friendly - Work is not stressful

Cons: Compensation is weak, but it might change after the IPO.

Pros: It is a good graduate training program. It is very much focused on research and development so the work can be very interesting. There are people from diverse locations around the world so it has a global feel to the organization. You are working with some of the smartest people in the industry.

Cons: Reactive management so feels like they are following trends of leading players in the industry rather than setting them. There is very poor diversity in terms of the senior positions in engineering and management in the company.
