Pros

Free coffee and sugar and cups.

Cons

Very disappointed with quality of management that it is well below the standard in terms of dedication, responsibility, team player and lack of immersion in the problems as engineers. Once promoted to manager or more, they are no longer engineers but Gods that just ask for things to be done and the "I don't want to hear it, I want it done" is the best they can do. The pressure put by managers gives a false feeling that things are hot, but in fact is a bicycle with broken chain. HR is also another place that do not help, advice or get involved when required. In fact, HR is the only department with La Dolce Vita life, with ALL THEIR STAFF barely working 7-8 hours including lunch, a department aside of the rest of company in terms of abiding to the rules. They have practically no input in selecting and fighting for people that have the experience and education when filling a posted position.

Pros

Entrepreneurial environment, many really amazing people, genuinely fun many times and accessible Sr leaders. Can move jobs internally quite easily (as long as you aren’t in Operations or in Asia)

Cons

Huge “good ole boys club”, senior leaders who are known bullies and sexual harassers are tolerated, physical offices are depressing, and sg&a staff are rarely ever recognized (they are just viewed as an expense to be minimized)

Pros

Jabil's culture is pretty great. Casual dress, community involvement, gym on campus, and lots of great programs for public speaking, boot camps, etc. I have also seen a few employees be promoted from within.

Cons

Management & HR. If you have any difficulty with your direct manager good luck. HR department is almost impossible to work with on any issue - benefits, FMLA, new hire information, etc. About 80% of the issues I have contacted HR about have never been resolved or took over 30 days only find out there is little to nothing they can do.
