Not female friendly

Pros

The US reputation within cyber, and supposed UK opportunities.

Cons

Ignore the job ad mentioning a 'google' environment, it doesnt exist. Just the worst mix of open plan with red walls. 2017 and still on lotus notes, with shocking IT service; they expect you to use your home/public wifi in your own time to update their kit. No career progression, No training. Have been a number of sexist, racist and violent incidents with the workplace, with inconsistent HR.

Amazing Management

Pros

I've worked for another defense contractor for around 7 years and I can confirm that Raytheon Missile Systems has superior management and culture, if not the best the industry; atleast in the navigation/state estimation group. In particular, management is competent, long-term forward thinking and encouraging. The most incredible thing about Raytheon is that learning is heavily encouraged and __funded__. The are a lot of opportunities for growth in many different areas. Apart from having your own high-tech business or tenured research in academia, Raytheon is THE place to be to improve yourself and change the world.

Cons

Some political decisions and red-tape still happen but they are to a much lesser degree than the other defense contractor I worked for.
