Arcadis reviews

No loyalty to employees, but only to shareholders. I was with a smaller company that was acquired by Arcadis and Arcadis ran this company into the ground. All they are looking to do is monopolize the industry while the CEO's, CFO's, investors, etcetera get rich and the employes are treated like factory workers. I had so many bosses who had bosses that had bosses, it doesn't surprise me they all care about the bottom line, cause all the profit is paying dividends to people who don't manage clients. The CEO makes $650,000 a year, with a 40-75% annual bonus, and the average employee, the one who's doing the work for the clients gets 3% salary increases, and 0% annual bonuses...Something doesn't seem right. Bottom line is they don't treat employees like they're valued. If you want loyal employees and clients who believe in what you are selling, you have to give your employees a reason to want to work for you.

You feel like an independent consultant lobbying internally to maintain your billable workload. There is no workload planning, so you have to constantly take on too much work to make sure you meet billable goals. There is little cross-training, so what you were hired to do is what you will do everyday. You see your supervisor once a year during annual reviews. The office culture is bleak and slightly depressing. Hard to describe, but just not a happy place to work.
