Pros

Some of the young employees are great which raytheon wont be able to retain sadly

Cons

The worst place to work I have ever experienced - the place is very backwords where management have very few morals and a bully like culture. There is no progression within the company and the salaries are less than other defence companies. Unless you share the same second name with another employee, have a "friend" in management you are going no where here.

Easily the worst company I've worked for

Pros

Good work/life balance, benefits and retirement plans

Cons

Raytheon is a very profit-driven company and does not care about its employees. Every echelon of my management save for my direct supervisor has shown no regard or interest in my welfare in or outside of the company. They will compensate you initially for extra hours worked and then find some technicality to take it away so your time is unpaid. Management is never on the same page and issues contradicting information. Management is also very out of touch with the actual services we provide to the customer, resulting in contradicting direction from Raytheon and customer management.
