Pros

Wide Geo spread, good opportunity to grow if your manager is supportive.

Cons

Management does not encourage employees and they have their favorites and profiling is obvious, it's sad.

Pros

Lots of great people, 100% match of 4% of salary for 401K, Tons of OT for those seeking it.

Cons

Mandatory 16 hours OT weekly, Too many unqualified people in leadership positions looking to lay blame on missed scheduling on others rather than taking full responsibility. No job specific training programs in place. 1000's of technical errors on drawings intended for specific job guidance, Too much responsibility delegated to each employee leaving one defeated before even beginning. Machines and Equipment on their last legs with no previous forethought of downed and misfunctioning resources. They actually wait until something is totally dysfunctional before deciding to replace or fix it without listening to the great people they do have to tend to technical issues. They will not spend money on anything until the problem is severe and once the ball is rolling it takes months to remedy. And does anyone wonder why they've been having to work so much OT for over 30 years?

Career Stifling, Unfair, Political and Volatile

Pros

Can have progress depending on your leader and if you positioned right in the organization.

Cons

Lots of Reduction in Forces The same group of employees are promoted year after year and everyone else is pushed aside and it’s obvious Easy to fall into the background and not be noticed nor recognized for your hard work Employees are led to believe there are merit increases and bonus payouts, there have not been any the past 2 years and this has placed a huge financial burden on families. All Employees are placed in a specific bracket of a pay range for cost saving purposes vs. being compensated for their experience and skill level Promotion process is unfair and unethical If you do not have good exposure to the leadership team, you will not be given the opportunity for challenging work, your work will go unnoticed and your career will digress after a few years. Managers are drowning in the same work as their employees and it’s impossible for them to be an effective people manager and provide support to their teams Increasing company revenue but more and more people are being Let go - why? This company loses the best talent because they go unnoticed and are not engaged - the culture needs to change and it’s an on fire issue at this point. Jabil’s reputation is one the line as being a good workplace. It is truly sad to see what has become of Jabil over the past couple of years, the Leadership and executive team has become very self Involved and fail to notice or even care about how the employees are being treated. This work place has become stifling and lacks transparency
