Pros

Somewhat stable job security. Repetitive menial work, standard job schedule, the roles are full time work from home. That means you get 40 hrs paid whether you have stuff to do or not

Cons

Do not expect to get promoted if you are a minority. Black, hispanic, indian, asian don't really get considered for opportunities as the management is very white and very racist. A lot of favoritism and no efforts are made to retain high performers, . If you are a minority prepare to kick really hard against a moving goal post. They preach equity and equality, but in the end most of people resigning are black, hispanic or asian. Raytheon has the lowest pay in the industry. The way to get promoted here, is to leave and come back after 3-5 years. The joke is on them, a lot of people are leaving and won't be coming back.

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!
