Pros

Good salary. Lots of fun projects.

Cons

The company's personal development review process is completely subjective and in no way designed to forward or help your career, it serves one purpose, to allow the company to prevent personal development. This scheme is linked to salary increase. The company has a very poor expenses system designed to prevent you claiming back your money and they make you take off personal mileage for business trips from your home, against advice from HMRC. All of the company's buildings and offices are old and outdated expect only a small desk and an old worn out chair well away from a window. New grads are treated like cheap labour, up until this year the 'development program' did not really exist. Too many levels of management, it makes it very hard to achieve anything, there standard office PC and laptops still use WindowsXP - lol.

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!
