Arcadis reviews

It's not a friendly office environment. People are very competitive or completely checked out. The main problem is the way they setup 'supervisors.' Most junior staff do very little to no direct work for their supervisor. It's a once a year meeting kind of thing, with supervisors taking no interest and never 'going to bat' for people getting raises/advancements. Also yes, as others have noted, the management changes frequently in this office, I don't know what it means, but it's not good. Your billability goal will be much higher than similar companies. You are pretty much expected to work overtime to meet these goals.

Poor experience with company buyouts - ARCADIS buys smaller firms and makes drastic changes the work culture, resulting in the mass exodus of talent. Staff are treated as if this is the car sales industry - Being a publicly traded corporation, the firm constantly reduces overhead costs which means staff layoffs are a constant occurrence. Staff members are layed off the moment they are nonbillable.
