Pros

Okay but expensive benefits. A lot of good people to work among. Usually interesting and challenging assignments. Flexible working hours. Office spaces are average. Cafeteria is available but over priced. Nice fitness/workout center.

Cons

Huge corporation with slow to react management. Management is busy keeping stockholders happy while people are leaving for better conditions, pay, etc. VERY difficult to get ahead if you're not one of the favorites. It's better to be a contractor than employee. No training budget, so to keep skills current is up to you on your own time. Annual raises are a joke.

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!
