Pros

The job is incredibly easy, and it is almost completely impossible to be fired. You should join if you are looking for an easy career/have responsibilities at home/want to settle down and never work more than 1-4hrs a week and get paid a low-end engineering salary.

Cons

I'd say that 50/100 employees at Raytheon are a complete waste of resources and don't contribute anything to the welfare of the company or to national security. Another 49/100 contribute at least somewhat, but at a significantly lower quality and volume than an average employee in a competitive commercial company. The last 1/100 employees are engineering fellows that keep the company going and are experts at herding sheep. If you join Raytheon, be prepared to: - Never be challenged—even if you go out of your way to participate in extra work/activities - Never be promoted for merit - Never be monetarily compensated for large accomplishments or strides of effort - Slowly lose your competency/"competitive edge" as you stay at Raytheon—I'd estimate a loss of 1 IQ point a year - Lose motivation to better yourself and stay intellectually stimulated

RIP Raytheon, Welcome to UTC+

Pros

Most of the employees are still people who understand the mission of a "for-profit" company in the Defense Industry and are focusing on the customer and mission in spite of the moronic finance and accounting majors who now run this company

Cons

"Raytheon" is gone. "Raytheon Technologies was not a "merger of equals," it was a takeover by United Technologies hoping to leverage the excellent "Raytheon" brand to help with their debt issue. However, instead they are dragging legacy Raytheon into the same woke DE&I crap that cost UTC so much. Repeating the same thing, but expecting a different result. What do we call that..., yea we all know - all except Greg Hayes, Dantaya WIlliams, and their entourage of rectal sycophants.

Pros

There is a free massage chair on the 10th floor and a snack room on the 6th floor

Cons

- Asked about core hours (9am-3pm), flexibility of setting my own hours and the ability to telecommute during the interview. Answers from management made this place seem like it was the most relaxed office in the world. - A month into my role I was asked to match the hours of the finance team (10am-7pm, sometimes 8-9pm). - Had to take a week off for family matters and pto request was not getting approved. Offered to telecommute and left the office, only to have senior finance mgr IM me and tell me to get offline on the second day of my OOO ("who said you can work remote? You need to get offline right now"). - Basically everything they told me during the interview was a lie. Anyone with other company experience will not enjoy working here. PM's talk to you like you're servants. Managers yell at you. People call you out in meetings in front of 5 other departments. You're told to not ask questions. When you seek help everyone is busy. No one is truly competent or sharp. The only ones who didn't seem to mind the rude culture were people who started their careers with internships at Raytheon and just climbed the corporate ladder. You will probably move up fast tho if you stick it out because turnover is high, but I've seen people get demoted for no reason with no HR involvement. If you come from a healthy working environment look elsewhere. Even HR is unhelpful.
