Pros

Salary and 9/80 work schedule. Interesting projects to work on. Profit sharing program and 401k. Good comprehensive benefits (health, dental, vision).

Cons

High stress until you burn out. Rarely enjoyed a 9/80 work schedule due to work load. Beware of ramping up hiring prior to a contract award then massive layoffs if not awarded

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!
