Pros

Raytheon company consists of innovative technology, very competent engineers, a reasonable flexible work schedule, and a good work/life balance. The benefits on the whole seem to be fairly comparable to others in the defense contractor industry in which they compete but I believe they could be better. Several of my former Raytheon colleagues have departed for better pay at other large defense contractors. I believe overall compensation could be improved in my opinion and would result in better employee retention. Aside from the slightly below average compensation, in my opinion, Raytheon still remains a good place to work and I would still recommend it as a good company for other engineers to work at.

Cons

Occasionally, feel like you get lost in the crowd because it is such a large company. No other complaints that come to mind.

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!
