Pros

Company is a DOD contractor and therefore they have an excellent long standing customer with near infinite demand. Due to this the position is very secure and there is plenty of room for lateral and linear promotions.

Cons

The job itself can be mundane, working with very archaic tools and systems, the massive code base can make getting things done very tedious and approvals have to go through a ton of legal red tape. Everything is within DOD standards so while the benefit structure is competitively average a very bright individual can certainly do better elsewhere.

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!
