Graduate Reviews
- The workplace perks and welfare, the many internal competitions and research funds to encourage exploration outside of normal scope of work and the cohesive and supportive team
- The people and management. The management especially the Arupians who are G6s and above, they live and breath the Arup values and treat everyone in the teams as equal. They always create opportunities for juniors to grow and learn. Yes we make mistakes but they also teach us how to correct them and understand where the mistake was. There is a lot of knowledge sharing happening.
- Working in inter-disciplinary teams and the ability to learn from and gain insights from in-house experts for projects.
- The lack of management system that makes it difficult for people to track what each other is working on
- Can be more focused on digital
- It can get pressurising at times because everyone is quite capable
