Pros

Great schedule, flexibility, and decent compensation for Tucson.

Cons

Promotions are based on 'time in service' as opposed to talent. Age rules here and there is some reverse age discrimination against younger employees.

Pros

Great company with great products and challenging technical work. Enjoyed working there as an electrical engineer.

Cons

Would have liked to seen more of a technical ladder. Management tended to be very program centric. Sometimes hard to move between programs.

Pros

Excellent benefits, vacation time, etc. We worked a 9/80 schedule which made every other weekend a three day weekend. Holidays were "saved" for the Xmas season, allowing extended Xmas vacation.

Cons

At Raytheon we had functional managers who typically did not assign work. The result was that our manager often had no direct knowledge of our work. Further, when managing others, those who performed poorly would often not name you as a manager, thereby attempting to obtain a better review.
