Pluspunten

Most of the staff, especially the field staff, are amiable and good to work with. Most of the senior staff are approachable and helpful. There is some flexibility with regards to location, as long as you're based near enough to projects.

Minpunten

This industry in general just leaves you with nothing if there happens to be no work available. And it heaps way too much on you when work is available. And of course you have to take it, to make up for the lean times. This is kinda true even for the office work, although extremely common with field work. I also feel the compensation needs improvement. We pay a lot for our degrees and then are expected to do pretty hard sometimes grueling work, we should be paid accordingly. My supervisors don't give me feedback unless it's bad.

Pluspunten

Hybrid Work and access to useful engineering tools

Minpunten

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.
