Pros

They trained me ready to get a real job where paid fairly and actually appreciated. 1/4 pay rise on leaving after 7 years of false promises. They provide an all round experience, there is no concept of dedicated roles any more that was abolished by Ivor so you whatever you role in the company or personal strengths you will have to do everything from business acquisition, project management, financial reporting/management as well as your actual job.

Cons

Pay 2/3 of national average to start, constant promise but absolutely no chance of ever getting market rate. Stupidly waited over 7 years on false promises that never happened. Atmosphere in office is very depressing. No attempt to counter offer on leaving, just an announcement that getting replaced by 4 people in Bangalore.

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.
