Pros

Work Schedule (4-9hr, 1-4hr work week). Ability to work from home via Citrix connection. Travel. Ability to travel to different offices/projects.

Cons

My office is lacking leadership and sales. We are lucky to be small enough that we can get work from other offices. Jacobs is a big company and change is often hard to achieve and the process is slow. Jacobs grows by purchasing other firms. This results in a lot of different groups doing things in different ways. Sometimes that can be good, but often interoffice work suffers because of the different "standards"
