Pros

Flexible time schedule, Fridays off with four ten hour days work schedule. Piad holidays and benefits are great and Austin office location was awesome.

Cons

Jacobs company culture and benefits replaced existing culture as the company was bought by Jacobs. Benefits weren't as great but the existing culture did not change.

Pros

Exposure to different aspects of the industries. Interesting people. The company tries hard to retain each and every one of their employees

Cons

Not clear how employees get evaluated... a bit of a random way to promote and remunerate people. Not easy to move offices.
