Pros

ARM's a good company to work for. Since the company's British, we've got more of a laid-back culture than somewhere like Apple. And we get good holidays and benefits because of the British culture. Mobile stuff is on the way up, and ARM's at the front of that. It's nice to be in a market segment that's trending up instead of down.

Cons

They're a little conservative with money. We don't have fancy headquarters or fabulous perks in the office. Salaries are supposedly lower than at similar American companies. We're not as deep into implementation technology as companies like Intel and Apple, since we mostly license the ARM instruction set.

Thanks for leaving a review! I completely agree that there are some great perks for working for a British company in the US, foremost being the generous vacation and holiday allotment we get. We've had to be a bit conservative as we're growing quickly these days (as you're well aware, having been with ARM for over 10 years!). Hopefully, the new building will address a lot of the issues that you mention, like a nicer building and perks. Salaries are still fairly competitive, but we factor in total compensation including bonuses and RSUs. -Rick C. Social Recruiting Manager
