Pros

The only thing, from my experience, that was a pro was salary. Metro-Denver is very competitive right now and Raytheon hangs with the other large defense contractors in that respect. So… if the size paycheck is the most important aspect of your employment, Raytheon will likely meet your needs in this department. Perhaps what I did to earn my salary, to some, could also be considered a plus. During my entire time at Raytheon I never did the job I was hired for and basically spent most of my time (other than two very short temporary assignments) … awaiting clearance. So basically, I did next to nothing but was paid my regular competitive salary. That might sound great… but it got old very fast.

Cons

After 37 years in the defense industry, my time with Raytheon-Aurora was… stunning on many levels (my experience). I was hired for (promised) a position that I soon realized, did not exist/never existed. On my first day, a huge surprise to me, I was sent to awaiting clearance (which my entire career). As a note, any “semi-competent” company’s security department could have had my SCI clearance activated in a few weeks. The environment and culture were nothing like my time at Lockheed or General Dynamics. When the pressure was on (when true character is revealed), ethics went out the window. A cover-up culture to mask misconduct in middle management was both prominent and just as surprising, supported by all management. Needless to say, leaving Raytheon was one the easiest decision of my long career. In other news… benefits and time off policies are nothing special and more in line with a 7-11 rather than other major defense contractors.

Pros

I can't think of ay pros at this time

Cons

weird corporate culture...not the aerospace I remember....I think it is inherited from Hughes. HR is not your friend Not a friendly environment Lots of tribal knowledge Nobody offers up a solution unless directly addressed Developing good aerospace product/solutions has noting to do with diversity and inclusion so stop with the social justice crap
