      Pros

      Top employer. Very energetic and young team. Backed up by large international experience.

      Cons

      Arup is comparable to top companies in the GTA. Has young and energetic management team. Very eager to please clients. Any negative aspects are not unique to Arup.. Arup is not immune to the general construction industry practices and budget focused environment.
