Pros

I happen to be on a program with some good folks. They make the environment bearable

Cons

* Raises are abysmal for a multi-billion dollar company * Middle management tends to be lack luster * Management loves to over promise and put unrealistic timelines on everyone * HR is practically useless now that we "merged" with United Technologies * Benefits could be better * Raytheon will do their best to keep you from getting promoted but still increase responsibilities on you in order to save money * Attrition rate is horrendous due to all of the above, creating a very unstable working environment. SME's are all but gone because they know their worth and leave the company

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!
