Pros

Money is good Room for growth in the right setting I've never heard of anyone getting laid off for lack of work. They will always find you something.

Cons

If you are someone working in the field, you feel easily forgotten about. Since I started 5 years ago, I have unfortunately only had managers that care more about positions being filled than the career path the individual aspires for. They do what is opportunistic for them, they do not keep the employee's best interest at hand unless you are incredibly valuable to them. Communication between high up management from main office and field crew is nearly non-existent.

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.
