“Tell colleagues you have a problem you need to solve for a customer and they're on your side right away”
"Two things struck me when I first joined ARM 15 years ago: ARM was filled with extremely bright and capable people and that every one of them was always open to help, especially when your problem impacted a customer. Since then, ARM has grown 10 times the size and I've helped to recruit dozens of those people. I strongly believe that we have been able to maintain a very high bar in terms of recruiting the best people and I see that every day in the people I work with."
"Life at ARM is no less busy than it was back in 1998 and as an organisation we have far more customers than we did back then. That’s not affected the attitude of people at ARM though: tell colleagues you have a problem you need to solve for a customer and they're on your side right away. ARM is a high-challenge environment where technical rigour is a way of life for the engineering teams. When combined with a universal commitment to solve customer problems and a belief in a vision to put ARM in every electronic device, I can't think of a better place to work in our industry."
Jon Connell, Director of Engineering, joined ARM in 1998
