Pros

Jacobs culture and climate forges employees into intergrated team. Mentoring culture futhers one's career. Jacobs insists on ethical business dealings as well as employees. Because of this, Jacobs is an industry leader. Jacobs invests in their employees with their Employee Moral & Welfare Committee (EMWC) and their Employee Council.

Cons

Repeat low-performing employees are relocated even though they were disciplined. Management sometimes refuses to make the hard choice with these employees. Many of them are first-line supervisors or managers. Thank goodness there are only a few of these employees.

Pros

Decent culture, individual contributors are fine, management is lacking

Cons

The company operates like many smaller companies depending on which business market you are in so your experience will vary. For some, it's the best company, others will say it's the worst; it just depends on your region/group even at the local level. Water/wastewater is a good market in most offices, transportation is hit an miss depending on location.
