Pluspunten

Offers good work life balance opportunities.

Minpunten

UK Senior Management is old fashioned. A lot of junior staff see no room for growth among a thick layer of management populated by the over 55s. Obviously busineses need a wide range of ages and experience amongst employees, however, it is very segregated into two camps at Jacobs. Very few opportunities to bid for work or try to grow business - work is solely distributed among various teams by senior management. Sometimes there's not enough work to go around and billing time appropriately turns into a game.You are encouraged to bill time to professional development, yet supervisors won't support actual professional development courses. Obsessed with health and safety.

Pluspunten

Decent culture, individual contributors are fine, management is lacking

Minpunten

The company operates like many smaller companies depending on which business market you are in so your experience will vary. For some, it's the best company, others will say it's the worst; it just depends on your region/group even at the local level. Water/wastewater is a good market in most offices, transportation is hit an miss depending on location.
