Pros

Raytheon can offer stability and the benefits are above average; although nothing extraordinary. Some people are here for the opportunity to build weapons of mass destruction. They start you with 10 days off (or PTO, paid time off, which includes your sick time and any personal time) in year one and then that jumps to 15 days the following year. They have a paid shutdown between Christmas and New Years Day. Once you're in though, you can stay here for years and years; you may end up doing the same stuff day after day, year after year but some people like that.

Cons

Woeful middle management and poor communication from leadership - they communicate but share nothing of real substance. Work life balance really depends which team you work with; example - some groups work a 9/80 shift meaning they are supposed to get every other Friday off yet this rarely happens as they are always trying to meet irresponsible deadlines. Promotions are challenging as the most an employee will receive is a 5% salary increase, regardless of how well their reviews have been and with the realization they can get more $$ from somewhere else. HR is not visible to employees.

Pros

If you are someone who cant find a job any where else and you have a passive aggressive mentality that keeps you from standing up for yourself. IF YOU STILL WISH TO WORK HERE AFTER READING THIS I AM SORRY FOR YOU.

Cons

where to start......how about everything low pay almost minimum wage, bad leadership, not focused on personal well fare of employees, supervisors pick sides, people legitimitely hate working here and will remind you constantly, low morale, people fall asleep at the job, management is quick to fire you, and did I mention the low pay. All you will ever hear is get your 40 hours but if you add travel back and forth its really close to 50 hours.
