Work Environment

Are you looking for a great work environment with flexible schedules, an open exchange of knowledge and ideas, and the opportunity to bring balance to your work and life schedules? We have that and here's some thoughts about this from our TEAM.

"I actually look forward to coming to work everyday!"

"I enjoy being able to have a flexible schedule and make appointments at any time I would need to. The flexibility also allows me to be able to work from home if needed."

"They are very understanding when it comes to needing to take time for family. Allowing me to work from home if needed, or dropping what I am working on to do an emergency pick up at my kids school"

"Jackson and Sands has a culture of helping in and out of the office. Each member of the office is a call away and will be more than willing to lend a hand when necessary."

"Flexibility gives me the relaxation feeling without having to feel like I would get written up for showing up at a specific time. The company culture is great at Jackson & Sands Engineering, Inc."

"The diverse experiences and backgrounds of the individuals involved allow for a place that fosters collaboration without a rigid hierarchy. Everyone's ideas are heard and considered and decisions come from a respectful exchange of ideas."

Professional Growth

Do you currently feel stagnant in your professional growth and are looking for an opportunity to thrive? Come check out the possibilities we have for you! Here's some thoughts about this from our TEAM.

"They're welcome to the idea of building my individual professional development. Through the last two years they have been supportive of all my personal and professional endeavors."

"My coworker’s achievements give me the motivation to set goals for myself and grow as an engineer"

"The growth focused mindset is also something worthy of note. Many companies are happy to continue with their size and structure but Jackson and Sands wants to expand into a larger firm and that permeates much of the thinking and planning. Finding places where people's skills are best matched to achieve this goal is something that constantly evolves and is sought out."

"There is a roadmap available showing me where my career can go within the Company."
