Business Outlook

Pros

The people are nice here and happy to help you learn about what they do.

Cons

The work environment is cramped, with many people sharing a cube with another person. Many of the business processes are dated as well along with much of the workforce. A vast majority of employees have solely worked at Raytheon their whole career and have little knowledge of new technologies, performance metrics or tool and are very hesitant to any change. This mentality is rather alarming and would make a transition to another company very difficult if one stays here for too long. They also have a tendency to several people doing jobs when only one or two people are actually needed.

Business Outlook

Pros

Interesting technology, good benefits package, abundant management opportunities for the technically savvy. A strong commitment to a “can’t we all get along” style diversity program. Over the years, senior management has started to look more representative of the site population (versus the traditional collection of older white men).

Cons

The bottom line is the top priority. Do not expect your engineering supervisor to be familiar with the current tools or technology. The process is more important than the process. Security gives out guessed guidance on security policies. They directed me to develop classified code for Sentinel/P1350 without a security clearance.
