Pros

Four day work week, relaxed atmosphere, nice facilities, flexible hours, good cafeteria, easy access from tollway, accommodated the use of my sit stand workstation

Cons

Like all big companies it is almost impossible to move past a senior position into supervision or management. Someone pretty much has to retire or die and then the only replacements considered are lifers.

Pros

Love the culture and the people.

Cons

The health insurance no longer covers GLP-1 or other weight-loss related medications (specifically excludes them), which I find appalling. They did cover it, but then removed coverage for all company plans. The benefits of weight-loss and obesity-related medical coverage are so high for employers and yet Jacobs decided not to care about their employees who need them.
