Pluspunten

* Paycheck * Office Facilities * Orlando Location * Microstation if you like old software * they only have two clients so all the work is basically the same and repetitive in nature so if that's what you like this is the place for you but you will learn very little.

Minpunten

* Gossiping coworkers * Pranks of bad taste Do not use your personal email at work or use your email password to log in into your computer or allow the email to be linked to your phone you will lose all privacy and the company does not mention any of these practices where they spy on your personal life in their code of conduct or in their guidelines. I basically had coworkers know all about my personal life and humilliate me about my browser history search and comment on my personal life at work. They also took the liberty to notify my partner at the time of my activities and she broke up with me because of it. People here are terrible gossipers and play politics to keep themselves in their positions or to force people out of their positions. one of the worse places I had the chance to work for profesionally. I had my manager contact my previous manager and basically gossip about me and constantly taunted me if I wanted to return to previous place of employment.

Pluspunten

Strong learning environment for entry-level engineers Great exposure to large-scale transportation and infrastructure projects with experienced mentors and structured onboarding. Reputable global firm Jacobs’ strong brand name adds credibility to your résumé and opens doors for future opportunities in both public and private sectors. Good career growth and mobility Clear pathways to move into roles like Project Engineer, Assistant Resident Engineer, or Construction Management with internal postings encouraged. Supportive team culture (project-dependent) Most teams are collaborative, and senior staff are willing to guide junior engineers, especially in inspection and CM roles. Competitive benefits and job stability Solid health benefits, 401(k), PTO, and steadier work compared to smaller consulting firms—especially on long-term public agency contracts.

Minpunten

Growth pace depends on manager and project Advancement and role expansion can vary widely based on leadership and available opportunities.
