Pros

- Excellent opportunities within the company. Many, many departments & positions to choose from. Jacobs has almost everything engineering related, particularly Civil. - Work/life balance is good; Jacobs advocates remote work if applicable to your position. - Generous PTO, increases with more tenure. - Great benefits (ESPP, health, dental, vision, STD, LTD, Traditional 401k & Roth 401k). - Matching for both Traditional 401k & Roth 401k.

Cons

- Did not see growth from within; positions opened up within my team and no one was getting promoted despite very competent track records. Did not feel that there was room to grow. - Non-management employees were not bonus eligible; seems that it is only for regional management. - Corporate's effort to increase employee engagement was sub-par. - Pay is on the lower side compared to other companies in the same industry.
