Vantaggi

good salary, benefits were ok, many of the project managers and staff I worked with were great in terms of temperament.

Svantaggi

Not a lot of movement . If you're comfortable doing the job, be prepared to stay there for YEARS. They make you fill out career development forms, and they act on them in terms of setting up mentorships, coaching, etc but it doesn't lead anywhere very quickly. Some of the project managers can be prima donnas and there are a few who are very unprofessional - talking about their colleagues in a derogatory manner or their clients who they're not in agreement with - it's embarrassing. The culture can be one of pretension depending on which group and office you're working with. It's also very much a silo. If you're a project manager, or an engineer with a lot of project work on your plate - say goodbye to your evenings and weekends.

Vantaggi

Hybrid Work and access to useful engineering tools

Svantaggi

Projects are inconsistent in organization and structure (some good some bad). High (and strict) utilization requirements of >93% for entry level and mid level engineers results in overtime with overlapping work loads to avoid any downtime between projects. No development or mentorship strategy around work assignments, the main goal is to keep utilization up. Stantec has been very focused on cutting costs by offshoring, limiting conference attendance, reducing volunteer hours, no tuition reimbursement, multiple layers of approvals to attend in-office CPR training, etc. Very corporate environment and top heavy management with over 240+ “Vice Presidents” currently at the company. Difficult to get raises/promotions besides annual raise. Typical raise is ~3-5% with a good review depending on where your current salary is in relation to the pay range for your career level.
