/ 100
Arm is a strong pick for early-career candidates who want a structured start, because Arm runs internships, graduate programmes, and degree apprenticeships with published support and development expectations. The score is capped by mixed candidate reports about the workload of assessments and by uneven pay-range visibility outside markets where Arm posts salary ranges publicly.
