Business Outlook

Pros

Some cool projects; Somewhat flexible work hours; and Some competent staff

Cons

Utilization is everything; ZERO recognition when you've exceeded your goals; Management cares about one thing: themselves; Pathetic compensation (spot bonuses can take months to be received); Promotion will not happen unless you "know someone"; Sell work, and watch some other clown above you be rewarded for it; GRIP. Seriously? Guaranteed remediation? Give me a break; Uses GRIP to hide current losses for future ones; Incompetent management in-charge of a bunch of fresh college grads who don't realize; Turn over. Revolving staff door cool? Try revolving management too.

Pros

Arcadis' management actively promotes engagement with colleagues both within your home office and throughout the company. The compensation is in line with similar companies. Middle management is good at honestly assessing employee strengths and weaknesses and helps to improve weaknesses and capitalize upon employee strengths.

Cons

Compensation for some positions is a little lower than the average for the industry. Personal time off for entry level positions is only two weeks, which isn't much at all.
