Pros

Great culture, inclusive, diverse and flexible working arrangements. Great team leaders and managers.

Cons

Project manager systems are clunky and slow and take you away from doing actual work. Project budgets are developed on Excel spreadsheets which created budgeting errors and when links were broken.

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.
