Nice to learn, bad to stay

Pros

You learn a lot of things about many technologies than on other industries. You also learn a lot about quality in general. Easy to move to different positions at first.

Cons

The company awards the bad employees: If you like to harass people, skip work, yell at others, this is your place. If you like to work, be kind and smile you won't last much. The harassment seems to be an enterprise world-wide company value, specially on the IT corporate team. Enterprise still is ruled by managers alone (what they say is what must be done), and the only way to get real money is becoming a manager. And something that sucks really bad: The company dictates when you can have vacations, and they usually force you taking them all during xmas season (should you take vacations other day, you won't receive any salary, provided they still consent you taking "extraordinary" vacations)

Pros

Best company I had ever worked for in 28 year career. Corp culture of work hard, whatever it takes to get the job done, play harder was a motivator. 98% of the employees were great to work with. Rules of the road were empowering from top to bottom, all the way to the floor/operator level. I would definitely join Jabil again with the new management structure in place since Mondellow took the helm.

Cons

Like most large companies, 2% bad apples mostly at the BUD, and Sr. Management evels. Not what you know but who you know....good ol boy network. Rewarded/compensated very well for over achieving performance targets. But I can see through LinkedIn the majority have already been cut or moved to different roles and positional responsibilities.

Pros

Exposure to world class practices, very talented staff, good compensation, loyalty to those who work hard and deliver results

Cons

Long hours and sometimes high pressure work environment. Staff are sometimes too consumed by their own areas of responsibility to be in a position to help others.
