Pros
There are a lot of opportunities to grow in other segments if they let you.
Cons
I would not suggest anyone work with them, especially in the field and at the Kearl mine site. The unwritten rule is that harassment is absolutely normal. They would belittle you, make fun of you, gossip, and create an absolutely unprofessional and extremely hostile environment. And then look at you and proudly say, "I'm racist." Stantec hires people through a referral program, and this leads to friends and family working together in the same working team. Then imagine how they make decisions based on their friendships and not according to the company's interest or job description. They are biased in most of the work and take sides during critical situations. So if you decide to work with them, good luck. If you talk to management, they will try to find a way to remove you from Stantec since you cannot adapt to the team and might be trouble for the manager. I have been working in a lot of work environments for 10 years. Honestly, I haven't seen this amount of hostility and toxicity in one workplace.
