Pros

Except for PDG. from my interaction with engineers from other departments,It's a pretty good place to work with a decent pay and best in Industry benefits. Highly recommend ARM excluding PDG.

Cons

There were highly inefficient processes and flows. Being in an automation position only manual procedures were handed out. You are expected to just follow orders rather than engineer holistic solutions. There was constant workplace bullying, verbal abuse, threats, humiliation, and intimidation. Toxic and hostile work environment. Swearing and usage of foul language is considered very normal. You are expected to get used to it. Working weekends and late nights are every normal. Projects deadlines are scheduled near the holidays and you are expected to work. There was a lot of racism. H1b employees are preferred. They are considered more compliant. There was hesitation to sponsor green card. Not to mention the racist remarks often made.
