Pros

Great benefits including 401K with matching contributions up to 4% of salary, modified time, overtime for salaried at straight time for hours over 40. Flexible, no rigid start and end of workday time. Reliable source of employment for past 10+ years. Stability not highly dependent on stock price.

Cons

Lots of bureaucracy, hard to get anything done which wears on you. Lots of people in higher positions in large part because of advanced degree, not because of experience or merit. Small annual raises for most people.

Pros

I worked at Raytheon for over 4 years and had a great experience. The company provided many learning and growth opportunities. I was promoted twice during my tenure with the company, and my responsibility increased significantly. I felt like my management supported me and provided me with the career mentorship that I was seeking. I felt empowered and respected during my time there.

Cons

It can be difficult to work at such a large defense contractor company because of all the process and red tape. Things can move slowly, you have to be patient and pick your battles. That being said, if you learn how to work within the system, you can make a significant impact here!
