Arm

ARM owns and sets the standard for the ARM architecture as well as the AMBA bus interface specifications which are used by many other companies. I really enjoy working on products that are using future versions of these specifications and having the opportunity to feed in enhancements to the specifications before they are made public.

I am constantly amazed at how well everyone works together - designers, verification engineers, management, etc. There is very little by the way of politics. This allows us to focus on the fun engineering work.

ARM's IT infrastructure is continuing to grow and helps ensure we have the right tools to do the job.

ARM is growing in terms of employee numbers as well as quantity of concurrent projects. This is causing a shift from a fairly flat, well connected, organization to one that is slightly more focussed/hierarchical in nature.
