      A growing company with severe growing pains.

      Pros

      This is the place to be if you like being at the beginning of a tech revolution. Compensation for my job is quite generous and most other employers won't even attempt to match it.

      Cons

      If you like personal space you won't get it here. Management insists on bringing more people on board and then pretends like the offices defy the laws of space like the TARDIS. If you want to be promoted I'd recommend looking elsewhere. If there's a choice to promote someone or hire from outside, 90% of the time it is always the latter decision. Management also doesn't feel that taking on more responsibility and stress merits a pay rise either. Upper management over the past year has done very well insulating itself from upward feedback. Employee surveys are conducted but results are spun in a fashion that'd make the best politicians jealous.

      Thanks for your honest feedback. Since we have grown so big so fast, it's hard to find the space to put people sometimes. Depending on your location, we are looking to address that with new buildings. In Austin, the new building being built can't get here quick enough, while the Cambridge office is also looking to expand some as well. Feedback from surveys are being listened to, and we are taking strides to address them quicker, with the revamp of the TAP and AFDS. So instead of doing a big course correction once a year, we're looking to do more frequent checkins to quickly adjust in short bursts. -Rick C. Social Recruiting Manager

      A great place to work.

      Pros

      Collaborative culture and amazingly intelligent people makes for a great place to work. There are so many opportunities at ARM and you really feel like you can make an impact because the company is still relatively small.

      Cons

      The company has grown quickly and therefore some of the processes are not scalable. As such there can be some bureaucracy but there is serious effort to improve this. The office environment in terms of facilities could be better. By no means are they bad, but there is definitely room for improvement.

      Thanks for your honest feedback. We completely acknowledge that we have grown very quickly, and some of our services haven't scaled to match our growth. We are investing heavily in our IT department both from an infrastructure standpoint, as well as personnel to ensure our employees have the best tools available to do their jobs. Hopefully with the expansion at ARM HQ in Cambridge, they can also do a quick refit of the offices there to make it a bit more modern! Thanks, -Rick C. Social Recruiting Manager
