Pros

Jacobs seems to be one of the better companies in environmental consulting (since acquiring CH2M). Very diverse group of people.

Cons

If there isn't enough work to go around, you have to use PTO. Maybe this is typical of consulting companies, but I'm not a fan. Also, not a lot of diversity of projects on the environmental side.
