Pros

Truly great people, excellent learning environment, great global networking and exchanges. In many regards, ARCADIS is the best company I have ever worked for and I am grateful for the experience.

Cons

If you're not "technical", you're considered lesser than. While recent efforts have turned to "marketing" (a term that has yet to be clearly defined and communicated) as the term of the year, experience of internal candidates is ignored. What's more, the actual proposal process is seen by management as an "administrative" action that anyone can manage.

Pros

I had worked with several of the Arcadis staff on a previous joint venture and I was very impressed with their talents, teamwork and strong work ethic. I felt more of one of them then the company I was working for. Kudos for the person hiring these people because they really know how to pick out the best. I quickly jumped at the opportunity to work with them but this time as an Arcadis employee. It's been less than a month and so far I am happy with my decision.

Cons

Right now I have no cons.

Decent company, poor management

Pros

Allowed for a healthy work/home balance. However, the hardest working and most capable people are not the ones to be promoted. The individuals being promoted advanced because they know how to kiss up to management and talk badly about their coworkers.

Cons

Poor management in a top-heavy company.
