Pros

Location is the best benefit! Destin has the prettiest beaches in the world, and that's a fact! Benefits package has numerous options and choices for your needs. Matching 401(k) package and Jacobs stock purchase plan options. Flexible work hours with optional compressed schedule.

Cons

Very low morale due to huge lay-offs, can't win any contracts, and resistence to change, Upper and middle management has condescending attitude, rejects most inputs from lower-levels, especially if not solicited, but always communicates that everything is wonderful; even the day before lay-offs.
