Pros

Good benefits, flexible hours and working with some great folks. I received good training and the working conditions were generally good.

Cons

Many in middle management seemed to be faking it. Educationally, I'm sure they were qualified, but failed miserably in open and honest communications and understanding what their people actually did and why. After 32 years I was laid off within a week of a management change, by my former manager! They understand numbers and think that firing people will fix things.

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!
