Thanks for leaving a review! We strive to make the work culture at ARM one that is inclusive and collaborative, so it's great to read that you felt it was a great working atmosphere! Depending on your role within ARM, it can be either technical or non-technical at all. If the work duties don't match the job description you applied for, that's something that should be addressed with your line manager. With the new AFDS tool, we encourage employees to have more frequent communication with their line manager so both parties are satisfied with work output as well as career progression. -Rick C. Social Recruiting Manager

Pros

if you get into a friendly team, it is a great workplace. some people are easier to get along with than others, but overall it is a welcoming environment.

Cons

incredibly layered hierarchy, often you're not sure who the decision maker is, and it can take weeks to get an answer to questions. For such a progressive thinking company, I think they need to streamline the decision making.

Thanks for leaving a review of your internship! We pride ourselves on making the work environment one that is inclusive and friendly, and I'm happy to read that you experienced that during your internship. The approach smaller companies take to make decisions is drastically different than that of a large company. Since we have grown rather quickly in the last few years, we have had to change our way of thinking in how we approach decision making, as you are absolutely right that process can be streamlined to be more efficient. That being said, we do hope to see you back at ARM once you complete your studies either as another summer internship or as a Graduate Engineering position. -Rick C. Social Recruiting Manager

Thanks for leaving a review of your experience at ARM. As you mentioned, we offer all employees a flexible work schedule, and all FTE employees a very generous amount of PTO, both of which help with keeping your mind and energy levels refreshed. On your view of HR policies, we continually collect feedback and improve on said HR policies to make ARM an even better to work. Recent changes like the new AFDS log book help employees with better communication channels with their line managers, as well as their annual performance review/salary adjustment. -Rick C.
