Pros

The people are great - many have spent their entire career at Hughes Aircraft / Raytheon so the knowledge base is fantastic. Nice setting for the location - close to stores and restaurants.

Cons

Contracts were not coming through as expected - so layoffs were happening up to 4 times a year over the last two years. Atmosphere very tense. Unfortunately, job opportunities are scarce - and given the current atmosphere, it's not very fun to work there any more.

Great people to work with. The compnay is very flexible. We have a 9/80 schedule option which you can accept to take. That way you can work 5 days of 9 hrs schedule the first week and 4 days of 9 hrs schedule the next week and be off that friday. Lots of opportunities for growth in the company. The company offers Tuition assistants for you to further your education. If you don't like your job, you can apply for other opportunities withing the company instead leaving the company. Health benefits are great. Overall, the company is awesome.

Cons

Not enough non-work related activities available.
