Vantaggi

-Reasonably good room for career growth - good exposure to big, high-budget projects - standard benefits package, nothing amazing but pretty normal

Svantaggi

- toxic upper management - staff are blamed for things not in their control - junior staff are treated poorly, overworked and underpaid - very corporate. They pretend to care about the health, well being, and work-life balance of their employees but ask employees to work insanely long hours and overtime. - they threatened to fire me on numerous occasions when I stood up for myself and my legal rights - high turnover rate. - performance reviews, in my experience, were very unpleasant. They included humiliation, belittling, intimidation, and threats of termination. - when there is no work to do (during slow times) they have asked me to use my vacation/sick time - non-cooperative team environment. Its more like "every man for themselves" creating a feeling of competition and hostility - emphasis on perfection. I was criticized for even the smallest of mistakes, some were not even my fault.

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.
