Vantaggi
The people I work with are decent people. The jobs are easy, the flexibility is nice as well. You are paid every Friday which is a big perk for those who like to have their money each week. PTO is based on years of service. Here is the breakdown: Less than 5 years: 2.31 hrs/wk = 15 days off 5 but less than 10: 3.08 hrs/wk = 20 days off 10 but less than 15: 3.46 hrs/wk = 22.5 days off 15+ : 3.85 hrs/wk = 25 days off Your PTO is on top of the 10 Federal Holidays you get per year. Yearly reviews are in place and they try their best to give you a raise each year.
Svantaggi
Sometimes they won't fire the people who need to be fired. I like a professional work environment and there are a few people here who came from non-professional work places and haven't adapted. In other words, they need to be talked to by HR about their actions, but no one does. They promise growth, but that doesn't happen. Everyone is too busy to help you grow. Jacobs doesn't recognize an MET as any form of an engineering degree. You will not be doing any engineering work with this degree. You can become bored depending on your job. Some people are really really busy, while others are not. Being Jacobs Technology based @ NASA and being funded from the Gov't, there are some tough times with the budget.
