Pros

Flexible work schedule: half Fridays or every other Friday off Good benefits Mostly nice employees Interesting line of work Company willing to rotate you between jobs Promotes diversity & inclusion

Cons

Because Raytheon is a government contractor, it is a long process to get promoted. Raytheon is a very traditional "check the boxes" to get promoted company. While it's partially based on merit, you won't get promoted even if you're already doing the job as a rockstar if you don't meet the 10 qualifications, such as longevity. (Must work between 4-6 years to get a level 3, 6-8 for a level 4, etc).

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!
