Pros

They pay well and have good benefits. I also liked the schedule where I got every other friday off and 10 days at Christmas in addition to my vacation time.

Cons

The corporate culture is basically a "who you know" networking structure. If you are not friends with someone important you will be shunted to the side and not assured of work to do. The company works on the work order system where you charge all of your time to various numbers, but sometimes you aren't given a number to charge to and the department has to scrounge something up.

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!
