Pros

They pay well and have good benefits. I also liked the schedule where I got every other friday off and 10 days at Christmas in addition to my vacation time.

Cons

The corporate culture is basically a "who you know" networking structure. If you are not friends with someone important you will be shunted to the side and not assured of work to do. The company works on the work order system where you charge all of your time to various numbers, but sometimes you aren't given a number to charge to and the department has to scrounge something up.

Pros

Nice benefits with good pay. Lots of good people to work with.

Cons

1) Not-invented-here syndrome is rampant. 2) Nobody wants to hear ideas. Or fund them. 3) Technologies are ancient, and no good for younger developers starting their careers (or mid-level wanting to advance their careers) 4) Upward growth is non-existent. 5) Profit-sharing gone. Employee reward system gone. 6) Policy before people.

Pros

Benefits typical of that of any large Aerospace Company but not any better, large workforce, many new opportunities, diverse employee base

Cons

Extremely political good ol boy Management structure. Advanced Manufacturing Engineering (AME) Group had zero support and was career suicide to work there. Despite numerous heroic acts out of the AME group including saving the company $100M, developing best in class Production Plans for the F programs, leading Managers were told that their careers had no future at Raytheon and were forced to seek employment elsewhere.
