Pros: The working location is highly flexible (allow WFH). Most members in our department spend only 40% to 60% of their time in the office, with some colleagues coming in as little as 20% each week. There’s a wealth of accessible resources — even if you’re working on a specific project, you still have access to nearly all documentation and development materials. For those eager to learn, this role offers extensive learning opportunities and a high level of visibility into internal technologies.

Cons: Working hours can be relatively long, and there are frequent urgent tasks. You need to be mentally prepared for some external teaching responsibilities. Additionally, when internal timelines cannot align with external demands, there may be emotionally charged reactions from some Taiwanese clients. A strong sense of emotional resilience is required, as issues are often not our fault.

Pros: Culturally, ARM is a good place to work.

Cons: The company is not flexible with the location of work.

Pros: The company has great principles, great flexibility of work, and a good package. What we work on adds great value to society.

Cons: New CEO wants to Arm to be lean and mean to compete at the highest level. This means shedding off old skin and reshaping the focus. But the way things are happening seems like there will not be a great culture here going ahead. Success will come at the cost of culture. Things happening at Arm reflect great contempt by the CEO towards how the company had worked previously. The makeover seems brutal as if it was a loss-making entity or heading towards a disaster. But in fact, all the change is to maximize profit. He has a yr experience at NVIDIA and he wants to take the same route.
