Pros

Interesting technology, good benefits package, abundant management opportunities for the technically savvy. A strong commitment to a “can’t we all get along” style diversity program. Over the years, senior management has started to look more representative of the site population (versus the traditional collection of older white men).

Cons

The bottom line is the top priority. Do not expect your engineering supervisor to be familiar with the current tools or technology. The process is more important than the process. Security gives out guessed guidance on security policies. They directed me to develop classified code for Sentinel/P1350 without a security clearance.

Pros

I worked at Raytheon for over 4 years and had a great experience. The company provided many learning and growth opportunities. I was promoted twice during my tenure with the company, and my responsibility increased significantly. I felt like my management supported me and provided me with the career mentorship that I was seeking. I felt empowered and respected during my time there.

Cons

It can be difficult to work at such a large defense contractor company because of all the process and red tape. Things can move slowly, you have to be patient and pick your battles. That being said, if you learn how to work within the system, you can make a significant impact here!
