As of now, it all looks great.

Great overall, but sometimes you find yourself working beyond working hours
- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★

Uncertainty over Nvidia buy-out, but will be stellar in any way with all the work already done.
- Current Employee★★★★★

Good company culture Great working environment
Cons
Consistently long hours at work
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Great salary package, great facilities (at Cambridge HQ), flexible working hours and great work colleagues, very inclusive atmosphere.
Cons
Recent structural changes due to Nvidia acquisition increases uncertainty at work
- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
You get to work with many of clever people. A sensible ongoing approach to come back to the office during the pandemic.
Cons
Benefits being reduced, and progression now very slow for current employees, so it is not the most compelling payment package in the market. Lots of good people leaving, as it is very hard to get your voice heard in terms of salary increases - very sad.
Continue reading - Former Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Lots of perks with bonus, good incentives such as flex pot (£4K on personal wellbeing and development) however this is no longer offered at Arm.
Cons
Unless you’re in with the senior managers you have zero chance of being noticed and rewarded for the work you do. Lots of politics with middle managers who have poor productivity seeming to get promoted or moved around rather than addressing the problems head on. Lots of chaos and confusion over who is doing what. It’s a shame as it wasn’t always like this.

We pride ourselves on creating an inclusive environment where everyone has the opportunity to collaborate, contribute and thrive. Thank you for completing your exit interview, your feedback is extremely valuable to us.
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
I, in theory, should go to my Cambridge office at least twice per week, but I'm effectively working from home full time from London. Very not stressful jobs
Cons
If your team is located, for instance, in London, they won't allow you, for instance, to work from France for that team
- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Advanced Arm technology and engineering methodologies you can learn from. You have a salary. Base salary is very low. Although Arm advertises additional benefits to golden the pill, these are not guaranteed. For example, the flexpot was a significant pay cut.
Cons
Too much politics. Employees with good connections higher up take leading roles independent of their technical capacity. They make your life hard with their attitude. Tasks are usually cog-ish. Sometimes you work on meaningless stuff. A lot of ownerships. You have to stay with your cog-ish task and if you look a bit further you might find yourself in trouble due to "trespassing"!
