Pros

Every other Friday off (as long as you aren't given too much work). The only good thing was not having to be there an extra day every other week.

Cons

Toxic culture in Andover site where everyone thinks everyone else is useless. Blaming others rather than failing as a team and learning is quite common. It was also perfectly normal for people to scream in meetings, bang tables, and make disrespectful insults. Changes are nearly impossible to make since the groups from different organizations hardly ever can work together.

Pros

The benefits are good, until the whole healthcare push, cheapened to the HSA plans. They do offer 9/80, competitive vacation

Cons

The retention is a façade. They hand out shirts, have Friday Raytheon shirt days, and always profess how they are for the military. They care to get the money from a contract. They employees are of little concern, and eventually when you go through a divorce, have a girlfriend who has crohns, they don't follow proper labor policies to help employees or discipline. Found my end of the year eval decorated with lies and made up scenarios that were never discussed or written down to be able to professionally discuss what to do. Fought and won an ADR which overturned it and then had retaliation to explain I need to do the PIP in order to work with Raytheon or continue as it is a tool to help. In the end it is used as way to stress and give reasons to let go of employees. HR never listens and they ignore retaliation claims and hostile work environment claims. They force everyone to have ethics training every year, yet when explaining to them they never address it. I was let go due to a new supervisor with a new perspective in the pocket of the manager out in Caly, that had a brother who is the boss of a higher division of the same group to come in a set in motion to not listen, harrass me and continually threaten I'll be out of a job. As a veteran, I'm not impressed. Sadly I had a retired cousin tell me his career and thought that's where I should work after my time in the Navy. That was a mistake. They don't care and walk you out the day they let you go. I will be happy when I have a better job working in the field I wanted to even when I asked to transfer. Whole life engineering is a joke and waste of time. The title itself is misleading as nothing they do handles product to be part of any of the lifecycle. THe engineers who run it are of title with no knowledge of the products. Most managers are hired from other companies who have other workers do the work, build up their reports and do nothing. The supervisor who made sure he let me go, did nothing but talk to everyone around him and fly all over the country. He accomplished nothing. His goal was branding. To me branding inside your own company is a sham to hide that you are doing nothing. I actually help win a new program and lost my job due to attending a section meeting late (That did not pertain to me), and excused myself from a meeting that was for IT personnel (I am not an IT), as the manager did not know me and assumed I worked in the IT department. Raytheon was fine as long as you sit in a cubby and do whatever they tell you, no imagination, no fun, and no reason to be original. Have no life outside or work unless it is about Raytheon events to wear Raytheon shirts and make Raytheon look good. You do not matter, you are expendable, you are not allowed to be human. Do not take VA prescribed medication at work and never wear your captain American pants with your Raytheon shirt Friday trying to work. Never question authority, as they are in charge. Thanks to Raytheon, I realize I should've stayed in for 20 years and never work for them. Stuck up ignorant snobs. Your look is everything to Raytheon. You don't look good, good luck on doing well.
