Arcadis reviews

Loads of monkey jobs, emphasize on utilisation (i.e. need to demonstrate why spend 2 hours on a job) and keep on hiring new junior staff... No real vision as this is a big beast which acquire whatever it can... Obvously this depends on the team you are in but across the board it seems that many people feel the same. Many people (even very well placed in the hierarchy) have left following acquisitions as the vision turns into lower end of the consulting sprectrum type of jobs. People are treated like another fish in the ocean.

Most Management if you can call it that are illusionist and add no value to the bottom line , since they deal with other illusionist their job is to always keep the illusion going that they actually know what they doing and add value to the company, they never get called out on bad decisions due the fact their colleagues are all playing the same game, this would explain project after project being out of budget and nothing has ben done except thousands of hours billed to the project of management one upping each other that they are the better illusionist . In addition there is a us vs. them mentality with all the various companies brought under one roof and no teambuilding whatsoever it seams no one driving the ship.
