Arup Employee Reviews

Excellent company to work for. Friendly and great benefits. Very good working conditions. Respectful colleagues, encouraged to succeed and improve in your job.It's a company that provides a stable career so probably more suited to people later in life, not so great if you're young and want to excel your career rapidly.

Great atmosphere, driven and intelligent coworkers

Structural Engineer (Current Employee) - Winchester - 14 August 2016

A typical day will consist of desk work, looking through architects drawings, modelling in 3D computer packages to determine the suitability of structural designs and hand calculations. Management are very friendly, knowledgeable and approachable. The hardest part of my work is the number of new things that need to be learned, however, this is likely to slow as I progress through my career.

Arup is an exceptional employer

Global Communications Manager (Former Employee) - London, ENG - 23 February 2015

Arup is one of those employers that people stay with for life. It is not unusual for people to have been with the company for 40 or 50 years. I, like many people, left Arup expecting the grass to be greener and went back within a year because it is such a lovely place to work. It is a big organisation, with 10,000+ employees so it has all of the downfalls you would expect to go with that, but the benefits hugely outweigh the challenges. The focus on doing good work and innovation rather than extracting money out of clients is a breath or fresh air in this very competitive industry. Profits are shared among all employees, so the company's success is each employee's success. If I hadn't moved away from London, I would be working for them still. I would recommend them both as an employer and for anyone in need of engineering or consulting services.

Pros

Innovation, Global opportunities, Profit sharing

Cons

Central services located in London
