Pros

ARM is everywhere, working with great people, good work / life balance.

You work on some cool projects, your work is relevant to billions of devices around the world.

Cons

Bad pay, ridiculous savings (on office material, computers, IT budget, food).

Specialization and affinity with management has more importance on promotions than competence.

Advice to Management

Stop saving on stupid things, give a pay rise to everyone compatible with the huge success the company had recent years.

There is a limit of how cool you can be before people will jump over for a better pay.
