Pros

Incredible culture that enables a true empowering and collaborative work environment. This is not just a benefit for employees, but arguably more importantly for customers.

Cons

Teh strength of a collaborative environment can slow down decisions at times. However, I think the pros outweigh the cons in this case.

Pros

- Great culture and loads of projects to get involved with - Friendly people & very little micro management - Mostly good work life balance. Can be intense but lots of flexibility - Pay seems fair (could always be more!) & plenty of opportunities for promotion - Just introduced a brilliant new benefit called FlexPot -always a handful of people who are never happy but everyone I've spoken to loves it! Shows Arm really cares about developing people

Cons

- Lots of change all the time
