Pros

Top Management is excellent with great vision. They have the willingness to do the right thing. Best of all ARM does not have "customers". At ARM every licensee of ARM technology is treated as a "Partner". This fosters Win-Win situation. Benefits are either at par or better than companies in the same field.

Cons

Old school thinking, does not work always. Need the all the support structures to improve Excellent Engineering Groups

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. The relationship we have with our partners is definitely a win-win situation, like you said. The ARM Partners Meeting that is held each year is such an open and collaborative meeting of talent in the industry, which helps to really drive the next generation of mobile technology. We're actively trying to change the company culture, and shift away from the old school thinking that you mentioned. Our engineers are the ones who really drive the company, so we're doing as much as we can to make sure that they have the support they need, both from a talent and tool standpoint, to get the job done. -Rick C. Social Recruiting Manager
