To be honest, Arm doubled head count of the last 5 years, and really haven't delivered. So it wouldn't be surprising to me that their costs are way too high compared to comparable companies. Having said that successfully getting back down to the correct head count is probably impossible. You just can't figure out who is essential, and you can't re-assure the people you want to stay, so the people who can leave, do leave, and you're left with the people you wanted to get rid of, but know you can't get rid of them because they're the only ones you have left. Then the good people who didn't leave take a look around and realize they're no longer working with the smart people they thought they were working with and start looking to leave too. And it's easier for them to leave because they've suddenly got a load of contacts at competitor companies.
