Pros

I would only recommend this company to entry level people looking to gain experience. No other pros to list.

Cons

When you think of a typical large corporate company, Arcadis is exactly that. You are just a number at Arcadis. Below industry standard compensation and well below standard benefits. Turnover is at an alarming rate. There is consistent restructuring and reorganization due to the high turnover rate. Nepotism is at an all time high. If you aren't sucking up to senior management, you have no chance of getting a raise or promotion no matter how hard you work. Hard work goes unnoticed. Arcadis ended their employee bonus reward program (red flag!). Finding ways to take money out of your employees' pockets isn't a solution. If you enjoy working around incompetent management, this company is for you.

Pros

Good health plan and benefits.

Cons

Expect to work extra. Billability requirements are ridiculous. If you want to take ur PTO plan on working extra or you won’t get a raise. No accountability for bad project managers.
