Pros

THere are so many oppurtunties to excel you just need to apply yourself and seek further education. They have given me money to relocate, travel and have paid for my experiance in the military. I was shocked that they considered me for the job and have given my all to work hard and move up in the company. If i ever get tired of this job I can simply apply for another job and they will move me. Communication is great in my matrix and they have gone above and beyond for me and my familiy. I would ecomend them to any of my fco-workers

Cons

The managment and change process is slow but effective

Pros

If in the right position, you may significantly grow technical skills that one is not able to do elsewhere. You have the opportunity to work with and think about technology that is knowledge limited. You have a decently stable position that one can grow a family and have a decent work/life balance.

Cons

This is a knock at the industry and not the company. The hierarchy is strictly structured like that of government bodies, making it harder for engineers to advance their career as it is in other industries. The pay is not as generous either as other industries, but is a payoff to its stability.

Pros

Doing actual technical work. Getting hands on experience. Hughes legacy in El Segundo. Raytheon matches 4% of 401k without a vesting period. The annual bonuses of roughly 1.5-3.5% are small, but they are something. The week off between Christmas and New Years is very unique to the Aerospace industry. The company values Technical expertise as much or more than Managers.

Cons

Lost as a number. Management always talking about slim training budget.
