Pluspunten

Flexible working Decent salary, benefits Lots of instant coffee and teas in the office kitchen

Minpunten

No bonus, no allowances, no overtime Little or no collaboration among teams and individuals Absent executive leadership, selfish management, promotions and salary increases for favorite employee only Leadership in a few Engineering Groups unqualified, inexperienced and highly political. Thus they dont want to bid for or pick complex engineering projects. Billability targets communication to engineers which are unachievable Average work and projects, quality of deliverables extremely poor Too many project managers with Project Management certifications but ZERO engineering knowledge, skill or competence Site visits and customer visits are not encouraged. If site visit actually happens (paid by customer), Jacobs doesnt pay any allowance or overtime, pays only expenses. Common culture of ganging up, framing people, putting them on impossible targets and then firing them for under performance. Real nasty stuff. Feel sad for graduates and young engineers, no guidance or training, just given administrative work and unbillable work for months
