Pros

Good smart people all around, friendly and always willing to help you with questions. Good benefits. Flexible schedule.

Cons

Very unreasonable schedules. Estimates made at the beginning of a project before full scope is known are then taken as gospel and written in stone even after new information is uncovered. Employees frequently work on multiple tasks, but the multi-tasking needed is taken to the extreme. Low morale, seems like no one is happy to be there.

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!
