Business Outlook
Pros
Very competitive salary structure with lot of opportunities located all over the world. Jacobs is a very conservatively run, multi-disciplined, well managed, and financially solid firm.
Cons
A myriad of sub-corporations further broken down by regionalized structure makes knowledge/experience transfer problematic; and at times, creates artificial barriers that can get in the way of pursuing/winning marquee projects. A fierce, restrictive control of overhead expenses reduces efficiency and at times, bottlenecks approvals at unusually high levels.
