Pros

Great culture and support network throughout the company. Huge range of opportunities to work on interesting projects and work abroad.

Cons

Management's ultimate priority is billability and as a publicly listed company the main care is pleasing shareholders. Often this appears to impact the other values the company has as profitable growth for shareholders takes centre stage.

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.
