Failed to live up to expectations
|
I joined Arup with a very positive impression of the company. I heard all about the amazing innovative projects, collaborative work environment and the ability to work in international locations. Unfortunately this impression lasted all of 12 months at most.
Serious dysfunctions exist within the North American leadership of the company. There is a level of arrogance and incompetence that would not be tolerated anywhere else. There was also a significant lack of support during my last year, no direction or guidance whatsoever.
People seemed to be promoted based on favoritism or if they met a specific gender/diversity quota rather than ability.

Great place to build a career
|
I started working as an electrical engineer for Arup at their office in east asia and later transferred to an office in the US, on the east coast. Great place to work and learn the basics of the Architect, construction industry, good work-life balance, at least in the US office, great benefits as well
|
|
As an electrical engineer, the opportunities are limited as all the leadership roles go to mechanical or structural engineers.

a bad company with a stagnant and toxic culture. Their business strategies are just hopes.
|
A very bad company particularly if you have different views from those preached by senior management. They do things entirely opposite to what they preach. A company with cowardly racist attitude thinking that they are still in UK 50 years ago. Their treatment of females is pathetic and this has been shown by internal surveys but the management plays such down.
A company which rewards incompetent staff if you belong to their clique. Its dates are numbered in Aus consulting business due to heavy project losses. It has a very toxic culture and the middle management has to wake up.

Arup is a great place if you are an Engineer
|
I enjoyed working at Arup - the company has a culture and value that people adhere to: respecting the design, strive for innovation, inclusion and diversity; however, if you are an engineer this is a good place for you, but not so much for the business service side. You don't have a defined career path and it's really difficult to advance in what you do.
Every year or two, the company also needs to let people go due to project direction change.
