Pros

Stantec is a large, global firm and fairly consistent.

Cons

The marketing and communications management team employs a "good old girl" network. The relationships at the top are not only insidious, but unfair. There is an environment of feeling like you are in high school which can be extremely disheartening. Those promoted to leadership roles achieve this because they are liked - not because they actually have merit or skill. Outside of Stantec, these "un"professionals would never rise to their level of success at this organization. That does NOT bode well for the department. If you want to move up or grow, or be respected for your contributions, find another place to work.

Pros

You will be working with great minds. People have their niches expertise and it’s wonderful to learn from them. Very professional and respectful behavior. Doesn’t feel like other consulting firms where you’re worked like a dog.

Cons

Sometimes it’s hard to build consistent work because people tend to hold on to their projects rather than transferring to junior staff and it’s mainly because the pressure to be billable is high.
