Thanks for leaving a review! We place a lot of trust in our employees with flexible work schedules and vacation, and are greatly awarded for it, as our recent listing as one of the top 5 most innovative companies in the world by Forbes will attest to! As ARM has grown rapidly the last few years, we've worked to add more frequent social events for more networking opportunities throughout the company, on top of the various conferences our employees attend throughout the world, such as the Big Picture, Global Engineering Conference and Global Graduate Conference. Since you're in Austin, we hope the move in to the new office will provide more social interactions for you! -Rick C. Social Recruiting Manager

Pros

People are generally friendly and helpful. Small-company culture means there's only minimal bureaucracy. People work hard, but there's a good work/life balance. Meetings are used sparingly and for big-picture tasks. When you need to talk to someone, you walk to their desk or IM them, which means problems can be solved faster. Free soda and coffee.

Cons

Nothing I can think of.

Thanks for leaving a review! It's a bit of a cycle that we're caught in right now. As the ARM product portfolio grows and we get more industry recognition, our partners are looking for us to develop products faster. This means we need to hire additional people to offset the growing work load, but like you said, it can seem like we're growing too fast, especially since the IT infrastructure hasn't caught up to where our employee workforce level is at yet. BUT! We've been actively working on that by increasing IT hiring to help support the engineers that are driving the technology of tomorrow. For salary, the Rewards team is actively benchmarking across the tech industry, and will make adjustments as needed. We recently launched the new AFDS so there are more frequent conversations regarding employee development, and not just a review once at the end of the year. As far as attrition is concerned, we still have one of the lowest turnover numbers in the tech, or any industry for that matter, which we are extremely proud of. If you do have any additional feedback, please do feel free to reach out to me! -Rick C. Social Recruiting Manager
