Pros

While I worked here, the Engineering team and output was unmatched. There were so many incredibly talented people, who are are willing to lend a hand to help. I've spent several hours at a desk with coworkers just dissecting a code section to see if I've got it right and can argue the AHJ towards my point of view. In addition to the great people, Jensen Hughes had dizzying variety of projects to work on. The type and clients are all over the place, but in a good way

Cons

As noted by my leave date, I left right around when several of the big mergers happened. i was not the only person to leave and the lack of retention was demoralizing. An incredible emphasis on utilization, to the detriment of worker's well-being at times. Sometimes extended hours would be compensated/appreciated sometimes you were told to suck it up and deal. An expectation that all the engineers/consultants would double as sales people.

Thank you for leaving your feedback here! Great coworkers and a wide variety of projects are two of the main perks of working at JH, so we’re glad you got to experience both during your time here. Please know retention is a primary focus area for us as we are nothing without our experts. Also, although our business runs on the seller-doer model, we realize the importance of a solid BD team, which is why we just brought in a new Chief Commercial Officer who we are confident will drive our BD efforts. Wishing you all the best!
