Pros

The group is a part of Jacobs Engineering, thus has some potential to be a game changer in the telecom industry. Good salary, and all the benefits a large company would offer. Comfortable work environments and flexible work hours

Cons

Way too many to list, starting from the top down. The NAI East division is the old Edwards & Kelcey group that Jacobs bought lock, stock and barrel in 07. This is what brought telecom to Jacobs, and all the horrible mis-management along with it. They should have stayed farming mushrooms and not brought that practice to an otherwise good company (Jacobs). Even before a project even smells like it is complete, they are planning your exit unless another project is available and coincides. They never talk about utilizing your talents and experience and they only recognize you once your nose is sufficiently brown. I would not recommend this company for anything or to anybody.

Pros

.... They have free coffee.....

Cons

Glass Ceiling, will sell you the position in the interview and make plenty of empty promises. Management is super shady. I've been employed here for 3 years and have yet to receive even as much as a cost of living raise. they offer no bonuses (not even for Christmas) the company pays for nothing, not even a Christmas party; everything is pot luck. If you have issues with harassment and bring it to your supervisor's attention, it gets swept under the rug and ignored as if it never happened. ALL management are unappreciative and see their employees as just a number. The other divisions of Jacobs appear to be an ideal job... the telecommunications side is the complete opposite.
