Pros

Flexible work hours Ability to work in various locations (for some) Comperable salary to the market Comperable health benefits to the market (although health benefits are not as good quality as they one were) Great staff/coworkers 401k matching

Cons

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.
