Good work life balance, this is to be expected as a lot of products are matured and not much challenging work left to do.
Pay is ok, it's improving, although not enough if you want to live in Cambridge with family.
There are still some excellent people in the company.
Good brand name.
As many products are matured, not many challenges nor opportunities for growth.
Self serving management, constant reorg only to promote managers. Many managers, sometimes it is hard to figure out some managers function.
Although a global company, lack of awareness among managers and engineers about this fact and have unfair expectations on behaviour and communication (English) irrespective of people's origin, unconscious/conscious bias is seen.
Key to career progression is visibility, visibility and visibility.
Being difficult to work with and micro management gets you recognition.
Lots of useless process, using of Agile where it is not suitable for example.
Multiple stage interview. Screening interview focused on Python conducted over the phone. Then a take home programming exercise. Finally two in person interviews covering Python proficiency interview and soft skill interview.
First, the recruiter analysed my resume, then he sent to ARM. They decided to interview me. It was 1 hour long phone interview. The second phase was a skill test (C programming).
1) 30min HR screening with typical questions. 2) 45min technical round with HM (questions about the coding language) 3) 1.5h live coding session focusing on DSA, starting from easy to med-hard, not LeetCode style which is appreciated. Is important
