Pros

Open plan airport style office, free bar and a bad drinking culture amongst staff who leave pissed on 2 nights a week, plenty of eye candy on view, half decent restaurant but shops around the corner and in near by station have better choice and value. Offer good basic quantity surveying training to young graduates and have a influx of eastern european staff. Cycle rack available.

Cons

Poor management lacking any contemporary skills, HR dangerously outsourced meaning you end up on wrong tax code and benefits are altered, senior management appear to openly take bungs, Does company pay tax in Netherlands or UK as part of Arcadis not known to staff, senior management of very questionable quality, you would be better elsewhere working for a decent UK company avoid the opportunity to join this practice. Second rate IT equipment, server, phones and way of working in this day and age.
