Pros

If you like slow moving traditional engineering consulting and don’t want to advance your career then maybe this is an OK place to work

Cons

Company is very large and bureaucratic Leaders are unable to make timely decisions Company culture is very stale and does not promote solving problems 401K program is not competitive. I was at Jacobs for 15 months (plus 16 years previously at CH2M that was acquired by Jacobs) and was not eligible for any company match on my 401K contributions Annual leave is poor Does not recognize time spent at acquired companies Promotes itself as a digital company but does not embrace or invest in digital solutions for it’s clients Does not present career advancement opportunities for high performers and as such loses it’s best employees Employees cannot talk to HR about issues
