Pros

Great benefits, RRSP plan, stock purchase plan, friendly co-workers, chance for advancement when getting into the field, many offices allows for movement if desired.

Cons

Usual large organization things, seems that even the most minor things have an entire department devoted to tracking so get ready to cc three people on every internal email! Pretty minor once you get used to it.

Pros

Stantec's work policy is fairly flexible. They have the framework set up to work from home, and hours are flexible to accommodate people's lifestyle. Internal training programs allow for employees to direct their own career path if they want to become more technical or business or human resource oriented. Relatively young management base gives some confidence that an ambitious junior employee can climb the corporate ladder quickly.

Cons

The young management base also means that they are often inexperienced. Especially when it comes to project managers. While their technical abilities are often great, many engineers and scientists who are PMs lack the subtle leadership skills to effectively lead motivate the team.
