    What’s it like working at Stantec Australia?

    AI summary of recent reviews
    Employees appreciate their supportive colleagues and the opportunity to work on interesting, complex projects across various sectors. Staff value the international exposure and access to a global knowledge pool, along with work-life balance and flexibility to work from home in some roles.

    However, there are some potential challenges, including inconsistent management with varying levels of leadership and accountability, limited career progression opportunities, and heavy workloads with expectations of uncompensated overtime. Additionally, salary levels may not always be competitive, the corporate structure can be hierarchical with red tape, and resources do not always match workload demands.

    The good thingsLooks good on the outside
    The challengesIncompetent people who have risen to top management have no clue on business operations and run the company like a bank. High levels of staff frustration due to drafting work outsourced to India with no supervision, extremely poor quality of work. Junior staff who recently hired keep enjoying promotions while staff who have been in the company for long time are ignored and zero career advancement. Expect to work very long hours with no compensation. High staff turnover as they get burned out. Pay all interstate trips with your own money, no budget for travel, training, courses, the list goes on and on.

    Canberra ACT 2600Less than 1 year in the role, former employee
    A pity, as it may have been an excellent opportunity.
    The good thingsVery interesting work. Applying technical and legal concepts
    The challengesMy experience was a little dissapointing in that due to the circumstances of having 2 different supervisors i was getting conflicting and inconsistent feedback on assigned tasks. This ultimately caused me to lose confidence and resign prior to course completion. A real pity as i had great hopes for this job. IP should be aware that whilst it is often hiring experienced technical people for patent examiner roles, they are being introduced to new legal concepts. If they are being provided invonsistent feedback then it can cause the trainee to question themselves causing a profound loss of confidence.
