Pros

Good work/ life balance. Plenty of overseas working opportunities if you are deem to be suitable. Company has its own culture.

Cons

Career advancement could be an issue but subjective to individual. Salary is competitive but not the highest among many other consultancies.

Pros

Working at Arup was a great experience, surrounded by smart, motivated, and mission-driven peers.

Cons

This may have since improved, but at least previously, the America's region felt rather second-class compared to UK. Most/all senior leadership, even in the US, was British.

Pros

Great company with lots of good benefits, interesting large scale projects, and a fantastic team of people to work with.

Cons

Be prepared to work long hours, overnights and weekends at times. At the end of the day, it is a consulting firm so the clients needs will always come first over employee health and wellbeing.
