Arcadis reviews

Management is incompetent, arrogant and do anything to get ahead. Relocation provided at ridiculous cost for people who are not worth a second look for lucrative client. New York office filled with pompous PMs who believe they know how to run a project. No attention paid to the lower ranking staff and training provided is minimal. Lost large amount of our staff recently due to the recession- abosutely no loyalty to the worker- those doing the grunt work so they management can continue the wine and dine mentality!

Culture of secrecy and nepotism. Relocation is reserved for "senior managers on the fast track". Horrendous time management by project managers. Lots of 80 hour weeks for salaried employees. Recognition for hours billed, not for effectiveness. They prefer to hire new graduates with no experience so they can pay them the lowest wages possible. Very high turnover rates of employees with less than five years. Rivers of alcohol served at new employee orientation. They prefer to win contracts and clients with gifts, food, and alcohol, lavish entertainment, good old boy network, and hiring competitor's project managers.
