Awesome technology, difficult to practice real engineering

Senior principal systems engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Some amazing technology that does good for our country (and it isn't all missles), amazing system building opportunities and ability to work on things you just won't see in the Internet sector. This place is for real engineers. Good salary. Competitive IF you get manager that cares.

Cons

Managers that care are hit and miss. Policies are very risk averse and can severely affect ability to take technical risks and innovate Finance and HR have too much control, and this affects ability to focus on engineering problems and get the resources needed for projects. The usual problems with big corporations exist here. Out of touch leadership, leadership that is not about engineering but about making money, corruption.

Pros

The team and management was fantastic during the few years I worked at Raytheon. Salary was competitive and hr supportive.

Raytheon is several business units and the benefits package varies by business units. I happened to be in a business unit with fewer benefits but that was known upon accepting the role with the orgnization.
