Culture at Jacobs Australia

8.6
8.6 rating for Culture, based on 15 reviews
Please describe your company's culture both in the office and after hours. Let us know about the structure and hierarchy, cooperation and teamwork, and socialising amongst colleagues.
Hours are long, ranging from 40-45 hours a week with no site works. Site works push this into 50 to 60 hours a week. Trialing a 4-day workweek would be a great trial.

Supportive culture, accessible team leaders. Strong bias towards working from home within our team, so not a lot of in-office socialising but we make it work.

Everyone is very friendly and there is no hierarchy in communication
Graduate, Brisbane
I can't comment for the entire company because I have heard different things from different teams but my team really prioritises healthy habits at work. We socialise online a lot but not many come into the office, seniors really respect and appreciate juniors

The culture is an area that is embedded from our highest levels of executive leadership right down to our smaller teams. Inclusivity and being able to be yourself at work are reinforced throughout the company and it goes far beyond just being a tick-box exercise. You really feel that these notions are meant and in turn, it has developed an amazing inclusive culture across the company. There is lots of collaboration and transparent leadership with our leaders being very approachable regardless of seniority. We have a lot of inter company networks such as social committees, careers networks, and LGBTQI+ committees just to name a few and they are always running various events that are open to any employee.

The culture within Jacobs is very inclusive. They organise regular catch-ups and check-in on staff health quite frequently.

Our office is quite small (regional Victoria )so you gat the felling of working with a small company but with opportunities of a international organization, There is a strong connection and support for graduates and enarly carreer professionals
Graduate, Victoria
I believe we have an amazing company culture; the company is extremely inclusive. Coming from an ethnically diverse background, my differences are celebrated and respected always. As a previous grad I was also fortunate enough to be part of the fun and collaborative environment created for Jacobs Graduates through social and personal development events.

People themselves are very lovely, there is not a huge post-work culture but that is because everything is very expensive.
