Pros

What makes Raytheon attractive is the variety in job positions it can offer when you can get it. Depending on the group you get in with it is the best as far as comradery.

Cons

Management has a hard time following through on promises to help promote job change within the company. Get pidgeon-holed into a position.

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!
