Pros

The people within Jacobs were pretty amazing. There was consistent communication and feedback available from leadership. The people within really seem to own their work and take it seriously.

Cons

There wasn't a ton of opportunity to grow from within the company at least not in my department. And there was a constant watch on billables and cost centers, so if you were not a revenue generating position, you always felt like each week could be your last-especially in this economy. The morale started to sink in 2008 and there wasn't much done to improve it.
