I think one of the best things about Arm is the fact that there’s not limited set of qualities that you need to get in. If you’re doing your job well, Arm will find a way to accommodate you.Diana Senior Software Engineer
The reasons I work at Arm are for the massive impact you make on the world with technology, the awesome benefits package (next year I go on a month’s paid sabbatical) and finally the people here are just nice and super smart to work with.Ross Senior Director of Engineering Debug & Studio Tools
There’s never a dull day at Arm. I’m never working on the same project for too long which means I get to work with lots of different teams. It’s very much a fail and learn fast culture and we’ll always quickly make a call on whether we should stick with it or switch it up and try something else.Sophie Senior DevOps Engineer
Rewards and Benefits
There's a difference between driving productivity and facilitating productivity. At Arm, we make time for the things that matter – inside and outside of work. We recognize the importance of work-life balance when it comes to navigating professional and personal responsibilities, which is why we offer support for various stages of life, such as parental bonding leave, a hybrid working model, and our sabbatical program that encourages you to take extended breaks to foster long-term wellbeing.

We encourage our people to take plenty of annual leave so they remain inspired and refreshed. But that’s not even the best part. After four years of working with us, you can take an extended paid four-week sabbatical to really hit pause or pursue a passion project.
We treat our people as individuals rather than a resource. Because it’s important to us to be there for you during the significant moments in your life, we offer flexible, progressive leave. Whether you’re growing your family, acting as a primary caregiver, or going through family loss, you’ll be able to put your family first when it matters the most, without career consequences.
We create a safe space for you to look after your mental and physical health, with support ranging from medical insurance to the workplace mental health platform Unmind. You’ll also have access to a growing number of onsite gyms and yoga, cycling and running clubs, quiet rooms and new mothers’ rooms. This is all underpinned by a flexible working policy to ensure you can be your brilliant self at work.
Volunteering at Arm
We’ve volunteered over 67,000 hours to amazing causes. We support our people to take action on the social and environmental causes that they care most about through volunteering; we’ll even give you a paid half-day per month to do so! In addition to the wide range of causes our people support, our community engagement program focuses on removing barriers to Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) for young people. 95% of our people would recommend volunteering, which has been shown to improve connections and professional skills.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
We are all unique. And we couldn’t be any more proud. People from all walks of life, from all over the globe, have made a home at Arm. We’re interested in getting to know you – the real you! That’s why we ask you to be your brilliant self here, because it truly benefits each and every one of us. Both creatively and on a human level. You’ll never not get recognition for your work by being who you are. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. Find out more.
Learning and Development
We encourage our people to upskill as much as they want with a comprehensive learning and development package, which includes technical development, mentoring, internal and external conferences, tech talks, and donut sessions.
