Pros

Employees were willing to help me and teach me about what was going on in the business. Upper management seemed to have good control over the office and made sure the work was completed correctly.

Cons

Working as an intern, the amount of responsibility was limited so finding meaningful work was hard come by. This resulted in many boring days.

Pros

Pay is fair and benefits are above average. There are opportunties to work with varied projects since it is a consulting firm. That helps it not be the same thing one quarter to the next--unless you're on a really big project.

Cons

It's not like you're working for one company. Stantec grew by acquisition and it shows. It's more like a network of affiliate companies or one big joint venture that happens to use the same financial system, IT support, and policies/procedures. Many offices hold work close to them and don't spread the opportunties. This is especially true if they specialize in a particular engineering consulting market. It is a public company and the shareholder is king--like any other public company. I came on through an acquired company. The culture we had went through the meat grinder.
