Pros

Interesting projects to work w/ great benefits. Vacation days were pretty good and I didn't find myself running low and could carry over some if I didn't use them all.

Cons

Some projects have expected overtimes and different support. Be prepared to navigate challenges on work-life balance depending on your role and responsibility to a project. Additionally, there are some growing pains of transitioning to a more flexible software planning environment. Additionally, you will require a clearance to work on most projects.

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!
