Pros

Good people amongst the working ranks. Good place to get experience.

Cons

Division management doesn't seem to care about employees. They are more concerned about share holder value, stock price, profit margin, and their salaries. Company picked up some of the Obamacare increase but individuals saw a VERY large increase in premiums. A several percent of annual pay as an annual profit sharing "bonus"was stopped. People are leaving for better companies. Everyone is wondering what's next to go. Most managers have their favorites and if you're not one of them forget about getting ahead.

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!
