Pros

Decent amount of Holidays/PTO/sabbaticals. Pretty good insurances, employee benefits, etc. Having a good business model, making steady but promising profits.

Cons

Salary (bonus) is not that competitive.

Thanks for leaving a review! We believe that a healthy and rested employee is vital to a high performing and innovative work force, so holidays/PTO/sabbaticals, benefits and flexible work policies should be the norm, not the exception. With all the above benefits and when you factor in the Launch/Partner award and Flexpot, the total compensation package is quite competitive! -Rick C.

Cons

Career path definition or growth in roles not clear. Pay scale still not very competitive.

Pros

Solid brand name and Softbank acquisition raising the profile further. Big opportunity to make an impact in certain areas.

Cons

Politics and positioning are getting worse post-acquisition. Mgmt./HR seems to be convinced that offering small cash bonuses instead of equity will retain talent or allow for top talent acquisition. This is a big issue. What kind of top talent joins a tech company with no equity comp and middle of the road cash comp. HR is still in the honeymoon phase of SoftBank acquisition. Bonus % are not market competitive, and new cash incentives are measly. No upside of joining Arm at this point. This is commonly discussed at Arm and HR seems blind to it.
