Business outlook
Pros
Jacobs Engineering is a great place to work when the private sector is down. Most of Jacobs Global Building Division work comes from Federal contracts, so there's always a lot of work during those down periods and the Government funds a lot of projects. Fast paced projects. High value on safety.
Cons
Management's understanding of how technology can benefit the company at the production level. Little training outside of required safety and HR training. Very much an 'old-boy's' network. You must know someone to feel safe when the chips are down.
