Pros

Good balance, lots of vacation and flexibility.

Cons

Salary is not competitive, no stocks. Bonus is like peanuts. Other benefits are okay at best.

They seem to only hire when there are layoffs in other companies (Oracle/Qualcomm/Samsung etc.). Not a good sign.

Experienced folks have been leaving left, right and center. Managements solution is to hire new people. Nothing is being done to reward the people who have been here. Yes new folks are good but don't forget the employees who made Arm what it is.

Vacation/flexibility is being offered by every company nowadays, not something to tout about. This is all I hear management talking about. These are no longer incentives.

Don't see any growth career wise, some teams seem to be preferred over others when it comes to promotions.

Advice to Management

Do not forget about your current employees. Please do something to cut the attrition which has been happening.

Reward fairly and look at the work an employee does to promote them instead of saying you need to be in this position for 3-4 years to get promoted. Would you rather prefer I take it easy for 3-4 years instead of working hard and do things better?
