      I'd seriously consider ALL other options before accepting a job here...

      Pros

      Salary was outstanding! 4/10 schedule was okay, too. Would have been nicer if we would have been given a choice though.

      Cons

      People are unwilling to help new comers. Everything is a secret...everyone keeps everything to themselves making it very difficult for new comers to successfully get onboarded. It took myself and a fellow co-worker one week before we could make long distance calls...and we were working closely with another office in another state! A very backstabbing, backbiting company.

      Pros

      The gifts are your yearly raises, But I no longer work here I lefted and found another job If you going to work for Jacobs don't let it be at Ford APTL

      Cons

      The Jacobs Supervisor has no clue what goes on at the times hes not in the lab. One of the workers made sexual contact with a female that work there HR got involved, they didn't do nothing about it. He still has a job there. Ford doesn't like Jacobs, so Jacobs workers are treated terrible.

      Pros

      Offices world wide. Diverse market areas, K-12, airports, medical, environmental, mining and minerals and petrochemical.

      Cons

      67,000 employees, Major trouble managing their human resources between divisions and regions. Easier to hire new and cheaper employees then hire from within. At the end of your assignment it will be up to you to find your next assignment.
