Nice place to work, as long as business is good

Business Outlook

Pros

Opportunity to work on a variety of challenging projects A lot of very knowledgeable, helpful employees Company is well respected in the industry Jacobs Engineering name looks good on a resume My office had a work schedule of 9 hours Monday-Thursday and 4 hours on Friday. It sure was nice leaving for the day at 11:30 on Fridays!

Cons

Constant fear of getting laid off. The business tends to be volatile, the work load fluctuates, and clients have a tendency to cancel projects mid-stream with little or no notice. When work is lacking, people get laid off. This is the only significant downside I see, but it is a major one.

As a contractor Jacobs primary concern is generating billable hours. Career development for employees is basically an afterthought.
