Pros
  • The working environment is generally great. Everybody is very friendly and helpful, the offices are nice and well managed, and I've never had an issue in this area.
  • The work itself is interesting and varied, and I feel like I'm generally contributing towards tech that's actually helpful.
  • The pay and other benefits/compensation are very good.
  • The company itself seems to be doing well and the job seems quite stable.
Cons

Fully remote working is basically never allowed unless you have a health problem or similar reason, even when it realistically could be done without issue. You can usually work remote a lot of the time, but there's a minimum in-office requirement.

Advice to Management

Genuinely consider allowing remote working more broadly or allowing greater flexibility with it. I understand wanting to encourage more interaction and oversight, and wanting to immerse employees more into the company culture, but allowing remote work for a lot of employees would likely also benefit both employees and Arm itself.

Employees that are mostly remote could live and work wherever they wished within the UK, rather than being based in one specific area, which would allow them to live more freely and potentially be cheaper (Cambridge, for example, isn't exactly a cheap place to live). Arm itself can then potentially benefit from having offices be a bit less crowded and not need to expand as much in that area - there can be enough desk space for everyone if not everyone has to be in the office so often.
