Pros

Support services of a modern company (IT/data/conferencing). Good co-workers, and management. Projects are engaging and exciting.

Cons

Due to acquisition business model, the company acts like a bunch of small companies under one umbrella at times. There are some overall corporate requirements for HR, safety, etc. but technical resources appear to be left up to the individual branches to figure out on their own sometimes. Centralized design practices could optimize production and also ensure proper technical knowledge is being applied correctly to projects.

Pros

Culture, culture and culture. The PEOPLE, benefits, flexibility, perks, amenities, projects, offices, resources.

Cons

Literally nothing. Can you believe it? And I'm a realist.

Pros

The larger firm has the right philosophy overall - “People First” , “Do the Right Thing”, etc. and from what I hear, other offices within Stantec are great places to work- great projects, good design, stable leadership, nice culture and true integrated design projects.

Cons

Infighting amongst the local senior leadership and the number of principals that have come and gone in a very short period of time has resulted in a very unstable, high-anxiety environment to work in, causing it very difficult to keep talented staff. Given the fact that New York City is a very competitive market for architecture and design services the opportunities are enormous but with the internal issues those opportunities are lost.
