Career limbo - werkgeversreview Senior Director Engineering bij Arm

Complete mess internally. Questionable hiring practices from mandated DEI quotas HR can sometimes hire someone into your team without you knowing, people hiring personal friends, spouses, family members has put the company into a toxic situation. People with skills and knowledge are harder to come by each year, seriously following a similar path to Intel. These people are in it for the long haul and always paranoid and defensive and trying to claim success but never put themselves out in front and take the risks. Most won't get an opportunity like this again to squander and many know the layoff is coming sooner or later. A lot have made it to positions line managing technical staff and the hiring bar drops as they don't want to be at risk of being discovered as useless. Company is overvalued so reward will heavily reduce in the future. Right now it's the honeymoon phase.
