Pros

Jacobs is a good place to work. Especially lately under the new CEO Jacobs is starting to really ramp up their benefits program and start to think outside the box with their programs to help employees feel like they're not just a number.

Cons

As an extremely large company bureaucracy can be a little rough and unfortunately there seems to be quite a bit of non-cooperation between departments within the company, sometimes seeming like you are contacting someone from another company who is not interested in helping you when it's really just another department within Jacobs.

Pros

Love the culture and the people.

Cons

The health insurance no longer covers GLP-1 or other weight-loss related medications (specifically excludes them), which I find appalling. They did cover it, but then removed coverage for all company plans. The benefits of weight-loss and obesity-related medical coverage are so high for employers and yet Jacobs decided not to care about their employees who need them.
