Pros

Diversity of projects to work on due to the high number of contracts at the El Segundo location. Good benefits and relatively relaxed atmosphere. I rated my experience rather high because I worked on well funded challenging contracts that gave the opportunity for travel and overtime if wanted, not mandatory. However, I know people that worked on contracts with funding problems and they seemed to dread their job. I can only grade Raytheon based on my particular work experience.

Cons

Location, painful commute. There are not many desireable, affordable housing areas near El Segundo and there is no easy way through the traffic. Many facilities look 30 years old.

Pros

Stimulating work, relaxed atmosphere (business casual), great co-workers. Getting time-off when needed for emergencies, or just last minute plans is pretty easy, because of the size of the company. Many opportunities for advancement. Yearly reviews and raises are pretty consistent. You definitely know what the career path is; the company goes to great lengths to make sure that all employees know what's expected of them. For the most part, Raytheon, as a company abides by it's core values and stated objectives. The work pace is reasonable for someone who loves what they do and is motivated. If you don't like what you do, I would imagine that it could be a pretty tough place to work.

Cons

Very large company, so sometimes you can feel like a very small and insignificant cog in a very large machine.
