Pros

The office is stunning. They also provide free coffee and hot chocolate.

Cons

Admin assistants are seen as disposable by the business. Also impossible to get promoted. Can feel like admin assistants are treated like second class citizens by the company. There is also a snobbish atmosphere which needs changing.

Pros

Working at Arup was a great experience, surrounded by smart, motivated, and mission-driven peers.

Cons

This may have since improved, but at least previously, the America's region felt rather second-class compared to UK. Most/all senior leadership, even in the US, was British.

Pros

Great company with lots of good benefits, interesting large scale projects, and a fantastic team of people to work with.

Cons

Be prepared to work long hours, overnights and weekends at times. At the end of the day, it is a consulting firm so the clients needs will always come first over employee health and wellbeing.
