Arcadis reviews

Work-life balance expectations seem to vary significantly from project to project and manger to manager. Although this is somewhat driven by the field, there is a significant lack of diversity within the organization and seems be little value placed on diversity. Compensation is not well tied to performance even though this is a performance driven organization. Improvements are being made here but they are slow.

Upper management sold out brand and employees for stocks and money. Veteran managers took buyouts and left. New managers are in power grab for themselves. Managers are using ARCADIS as scapegoat to thin out the employees. First massive terminations, they call layoffs, in company history in 2011. Veteran employees are being forced out through low to no raises and pressure to work uncompensated to be more billable while being told company is not performing well. New, younger employees are promoted too fast without experience or mentors and given glowing reports of company performance.
