Pros

Some, as long as there is plenty of work. But not enough to outweigh the cons. Get it while you can and keep your options open to move on.

Cons

Many. They will ride you hard and hang you out to dry. Expect them not to keep their promises during the hiring process and they will think that they own you after you are hired. Some of the upper management is good to work with but do not expect it to last long. Management is shaken up quite often and sooner or later you will end up in a snake pit. And good luck in that one horse town. The sun and dryness will ruin your skin. Upper management will treat the lower level employees very poorly when the government contracts get thin. Beware.

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!
