Pros

Every other friday off is a nice perk. Work 40hours/week. Paid for OT even as an engineer. Good benefits. Laid-back environment.

Cons

No pay raise for most employees this past year, except... Most women/minority engineers are given lots of opportunities to advance and collect salary bumps compared to white male counterparts based on my personal circumstantial experiences. This is a distracting policy. I have seen a lot of talent leave for greener pastures as a result.

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!
