Pros

* In software engineering, very flexible/casual dress-code * Free coffee * Intuitive, friendly and energetic co-workers and staff across business sections. * Education and training are encouraged and often subsidized. * Using odd/non-industry technologies to solve real-world problems is both encouraged and applauded.

Cons

* Depending on where you are (business section), work could either be monotonous OR sporadic and multi-disciplined * Many innovative, smaller groups sadly live and die by the sword of politics if they support a larger/better funded internal program. * Politics concerning educational funding do not correctly overlap with when most industry events are taking place.

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!
