Pros

Work with very intelligent, wonderful people on a project with a worldwide user base Able to focus on Python scripting and application development Very good benefits

Cons

Management was locked in a development mindset from the 1980s The business was too big and too slow for its own good. The development team was never able to acquire the right tools to do the job well. The entire development, testing and deployment process was bloated beyond usefulness, locked into a contract that crippled good judgment and efficiency. So. Much. Rework. There was never time to do it right the first time, but there always seemed to be time to do it again.

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!
