"The pay at Jacobs has been frozen since 2017. They justify it by saying they have to wait until they finish the current acquisition, merger, or divestiture... then they start another one.
Note: I no longer work for Jacobs. They divested my division in 2019, then in 2020 I was offered a promotion and more money at another company."
