Pros
you get paid nothing else
Kontras
As a legacy SKM staff, I was expecting a much more from the acquisition. Instead the sole focus for the company is the bottom line and essentially a number to meet utilisation targets. You position is not safe even if you meet the allocated target as some people in my office have found out. Don't believe the people are our greatest asset slogan. Management has been reduced to bean counters with a culture of fear not empowerment. I could go on, but compared to SKM, Jacobs does not look after its people and you are virtually on your own to find work. The inside/outside sales process does not work and provides non billable staff credit for projects operations would have won through established relationships. Professional development focus on 1 -10 years experience. Little training was offered for 20+ years.
