Pros

It is a publicly traded firm that is actually a holding company of twenty smaller firms which promotes individual agendas and an unwillingness to share resources if it ostensibly benefits another office and not its own.

Cons

Very fragmented firm. The previous companies that Stantec acquired each retain its own culture resulting in over 100 internal fiefdoms protecting client relationships and willingness to share resources. Its the reason for its underperforming stock price.

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.
