Pros

Many different programs to choose from, good work-life balance, good compensation and benefits for work.

Cons

Though there are a lot of programs, your ability to work on them depends solely on your relationship with your manager and your networking skills. If you are at all passive, you lose. You will not get approved for training opportunities, you will not be short-listed for interesting projects, you will not get promoted. The only one looking out for you is you.

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!
