Arup has been honoured with a Glassdoor Employees’ Choice Award, recognising the Best Places to Work in 2016 in the UK category.

The Employees’ Choice Awards campaign, now in its eighth year, relies solely on the input of employees, who elect to provide feedback on their jobs, work environments and companies via Glassdoor.

“

Everyone wants a job and company they love. At Glassdoor, we’re working to make that a reality for the millions of job seekers around the world who are turning to Glassdoor for information they can’t find anywhere else. Campaigns like the Employees’ Choice Awards allow us to honour employers that stand out for their efforts in providing an enjoyable work environment and culture. ” Robert Hohman Co-founder and CEO, Glassdoor

On Glassdoor, current and former employees of companies worldwide can share both quantitative and qualitative data about their workplace experience in a survey designed to capture a genuine and authentic inside look at what it’s like to work at particular jobs and companies. The survey asks employees to rate their satisfaction with the company overall, and key workplace factors like career opportunities, compensation, benefits, work/life balance, senior management, as well as culture and values. In addition, employees are asked to describe the best reasons to work at their companies as well as any downsides.

The Best Places to Work are determined using company reviews shared by UK-based employees between November 3, 2014 and November 1, 2015. To be considered for the UK list, a company must have at least 25 Glassdoor-approved company reviews from current and former employees during the window of eligibility. The final list is compiled based on Glassdoor’s proprietary algorithm, and takes into account quantity, quality and consistency of reviews.
