Pros

Excellent diversity of engineering and environmental projects with solid technical expertise. Decent benefits. Good internal network for solving clients problems across the US.

Cons

Significant disconnect between management and ground level staff. Focused on the bottom line regardless of how this impacts employees and their outside lives. When an employee expresses concerns about the company's direction, the management team becomes openly hostile toward the employee until they leave the company.

Pros

Concept of working for an Environmental company makes you feel like your making a difference.

Cons

Work you way too hard on a not satisfying salary, benefits are not as good as expected, you feel like you cant take a vacation because of the amount of work waiting for you when you get back.

Pros

Full time work, excellent health benefits.

Cons

Arcadis expects every employee to achieve quarterly and annual goals. For two years, we didn't receive the KPI's until 2nd quarter. That meant no one achieved their 1st quarter goals. I have witnessed unprofessional behavior from management 1st hand. Several of us were meeting an upper level management person for the first time. In that meeting the person threatened our employment with the company. In 2 years working for Arcadis, I had above average evaluations but no compensation. Management has their pet employee's and they are the only ones who receive a merit increase, cost of living increase and bonus. As work was drying up, we were told that our positions would as well. We were told that we would receive a small severance. When it was my turn and I was laid off, the company classified me as resigning so I was not eligible for severance. Finally, HR was a JOKE! One person from HR contacted me in reference to my lay off and was yelling at me. I couldn't get over it. The person was rude and demeaning as well.
