RBE Technical Specialist I (Former Employee), Camp Lejeune, NC – March 19, 2013
Pros: comraderie
Cons: politics
I analyzed, troubleshot, assisted and guided Marines and civilians in Supply Chain Management and Logistics. I managed 6 civilians and 3 Marines. My co-workers were awesome to work with, I learned a great deal from them. The hardest part of the job was meeting deadlines when dealing with 26 commands. The most enjoyable part of the job was teaching young – more... Marines. – less

Nice company
Technical Supervisor (Former Employee), Lincoln, MA – March 15, 2013
Pros: fascinating work. all of the military are very nice.
Cons: jacobs' erp software is badly in need of tlc., some of the fed. civilian workforce are nasty and there is nothing jacobs can do about it.
In general, a warm company, when do you see that anymore?!?!
All work is on customer site, typical day is very fast paced.

Most of the management is swift and supportive with the occasional MIA type. No consistency in communications with employees between departments/managers.

Most coworkers are sharp and collaborative.

Amazing organization to work for
Logistics Information Manager (Current Employee), Albany, GA – February 19, 2013
Pros: great environment, good benefits, challenging projects and great personnel
Cons: n/a
My typical day is a fast pace on the move day either developing applications to automate routine processes or developing database to retrieve and store vital information pertaining to our customers objectives. Not too many boring days and the culture is one of true caring and concern. Great team environment and management is always supportive of personnel. – more... The hardest part of this job is truly ensuring that one understands the customer's requirements. The most enjoyable aspect of this job is the fact that you know what you are doing is directly saving lives of personnel who are risking their lives day in and day out. – less

Project Manager (Former Employee), Alexandria, VA – October 11, 2012
Pros: co-workers, team members, management
Cons: company changed name 3 times in 4 years. low sense of identity
My career at Jacobs Technology was quite enjoyable in many aspects. Most notably they hire quality people, both in skill set and character. Another aspect of Jacobs Technology that I found appealing was their style of management. There is a low scale of micromanagement. As a manager myself I find this to be more professional. As a team member I believe – more... there should exist, a sense of accountability but not babysitting. – less
