Pros

- Depending on program, very flexible with work time (flex time, hybrid despite hired on as onsite) - Very friendly work environment - Great learning experience for early career - Great salary

Cons

- Often time overworked and forced to do OT on last minute occasions due to program misalignment and mismanagement - Poor performance raises and promotional opportunities despite given high performance review - Prepare to perform more than the grade you are hired in as... If you are a P1/P2, you could expect to be more responsible than some P3/P4 in your team. Hence more responsibilities than higher ranked peers despite having more talent/skills than them due to seniority in the company

Pros

Pay Benefits and 401k match is great co-workers are exceptional

Cons

Micromanagement Quarterly decision making Heading down Boeing's path Raytheon used to be a great place to work that mixed engineering excellence with the fact we are publicly traded. Now it's just about meeting numbers. Research Boeing's downfall; RTX is heading down the same path

Pros

The work was interesting. Benefits and salary are competitive with other large Aerospace and defense companies. Remote work was flexible if your program is in the open.

Cons

Dept and functional management are highly incompetent and do a poor job at regulating staffing, transfer of knowledge, bids/proposals, and keeping work flowing. In addition, your experience at the company will vary heavily based on the team/program you are placed with. You can get a cool team or a team led by a toxic egomaniacal wolf. To join a new program or team you essentially have to go through another interview. None of the interdisciplinary teams talk to each other so integration is last minute and fails spectacularly with finger pointing. “Our part worked.” Even teams within the same dept dislike each other and compete refusing to share the company’s own IP for job security. Lastly, onsite was dead and not at all welcoming to outsiders, too much undocumented tribal knowledge, no proper orientation outside of a lame zoom call and ppt presentation. You don’t even sit anywhere next to your actual team so zero reasons to be onsite unless you are in the closed.
