Business Outlook
Pros
It's a large company with good benefits, good training and development opportunities, and a global presence. This was a great place to get my feet wet as a recent engineering graduate. The 9/80 schedule is great because then you can take every other Friday off to run errands or take a long-weekend getaway.
Cons
The matrix organization structure makes it difficult to understand who exactly you work for. As a defense contractor that relies on government spending, Raytheon also deals with a lot of volatility in its workforce.
