Pros

In general Raytheon has a good Work/Life Balance(though my division doesn't have a clue) and they have many programs for health and care for employees. Lots of opportunities to move around, even if you shouldn't be allowed to move in the middle of your program and leave it hanging.

Cons

Poor Program Management, Bids Programs as tweaks to old technology to be low price though they are not meeting the intent of the customer needs. Poor attention to detail. Lack of review and generation of thorough requirements. Poor Business Development Capabilities. Looking more and more like United Technologies is squeezing the life out of Raytheon and cutting benefits. Horrible pension rules by BoD is driving key talent out into early retirement.

Pros

Great co-workers, always friendly, willing to help/mentor, have made some great friends. Working on jet engines is always interesting. Average vacation time and medical benefits.

Cons

Lower than industry salaries. Have to suck up to the bosses to advance, performance and attitude isn't nearly as important as it should be. Company culture is lagging behind the times. Have some less than qualified managers who still believe it's okay to yell/swear/belittle employees (and no consequences when reported). A lot of attrition without hiring quick enough, results in a burnt out and overworked workforce for those who stay. Upper level management believes it's a privilege "to work for such a great company" and as a result lag behind in raises, standard promotions, and force unpaid overtime. BUREAUCRACY galore, definition of a huge company.

Pros

Steady paycheck, offer benefits and flexibility in work schedule (depending on your immediate manager’s approval)

Cons

Extremely toxic work environment since being purchased by UTC, company’s choice of vendors who provide the benefits are not the best - i.e. Alight for 401k management, changed from Fidelity, bonus plan
