Pros

For those who have a desire to learn, Raytheon is a great place to be. There are plenty of classes taught by company experts, reimbursement for off-campus degrees, online resources, and good old-fashioned mentoring. There are many opportunities to be found for career advancement if you look in the right places.

Cons

Like any large organization, it can be tough to deal with several layers of management. Raises and promotions are highly dependent on the group you work with and can give individuals very different experiences.

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!
