Pros

- Workload was reasonable - Direct teammates were great. - Great focus on work-life balance

Cons

- Management outside of direct supervisor was largely absent and out of touch with actual operational needs. - Constant budget issues, and upper management is only concerned with the bottom line. The UTC "merger of equals" was anything but. UTC is destroying a reputable and trusted brand. - Workplace can feel toxic and stifling due to DEI quotas and potential retribution for speaking honestly.

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!
