Too much red tape and bureaucracy, must be self-motivated to succeed here.

Pros

Many different programs to choose from, good work-life balance, good compensation and benefits for work.

Cons

Though there are a lot of programs, your ability to work on them depends solely on your relationship with your manager and your networking skills. If you are at all passive, you lose. You will not get approved for training opportunities, you will not be short-listed for interesting projects, you will not get promoted. The only one looking out for you is you.

The pay is great and vacation time generous.

Pros

Very mature processes and systems related to employee and career development. You are able to work on projects that matter and that keep soldiers alive and our nation secure. Raytheon does a very good job connecting your day to day work with the strategic direction of the company.

Cons

Extremely political - if the boss likes you, then that's all that's required. Creates an environment where 'kissing up and kicking down' is actually encouraged (though I don't believe this is on purpose). VPs feel as if their word is law and are confused when someone dares to differ in their opinion - they are surprisingly disconnected from the working lives of their staff, but feel as if they're in the loop.
