Pros

Benefits and pay are great. When they say there is mobility (both lateral and upward) in the company, they really mean it. Workplace culture is good.

Cons

Information transfer between outgoing and incoming generations of employees is absolutely terrible and not well regulated. Raytheon is an old company, its workforce is retiring, and its struggling with young employee retention. They'll figure it out, but likely too late. If you want answers to your everyday questions about your tasks, you'll have to work hard to track those answers down. Working with sensitive information can be an absolute nightmare.

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!
