Pros

There are a lot of missile programs to move between so the job never gets boring. The people are great and the schedule is nice (9/80), and my favorite part are the technical resources.

Cons

Leadership is very poor. I can't tell you how many times I was told, "Plan for success!" when I estimated time on my projects for trouble shooting, and design updates after key testing milestone. They basically want to design something, build one, test it, then submit to production without changing the design. Not all missile programs are like that at Raytheon, but enough of them are that it becomes a problem. Leadership needs improvement.

Pros

Great pay, great benefits. Flexible work hours.

Cons

Top heavy with closed minded, ex-military management chain. Little or no opportunities for growth and promotion. Ineffective managers rarely get involved like they should and problems get ignored for years. Promotion is only possible through attrition. Innovation is pushed but innovators are expected to provide complete solutions on their own time. Programs / projects end abruptly and leave employees with no coverage. Raises are capped by an artificial pay band system which isn't documented. Management will not have your back.
