Thanks for leaving a review, and your over 10 years of service to Arm. The efforts of the earliest Arm employees paved the way to where we are today! Our acquisition by Softbank is giving us the opportunity to focus on what makes Arm great without the need to answer to shareholders in the short term. We are investing a lot in to growing our organizations, having grown by over 1000 employees in the last year alone! I anticipate a lot of new, innovative products will come online in the next few years as leadership have set sights on 1 trillion connected devices to come online in the next 20 years. -Rick C.
