Pros

I believe the pay is decent and the work interesting. There are opportunities to move forward with your career and they seem to support that quite vehemently. There is also a lot of different kinds of work to be done. They support education and letting you do what you want. They try to let you pursue what interests you if it is possible. It has been an interesting play to work. It would be nice to know more about the inner workings of the company.

Cons

Not having a security clearance can be a problem. Or not being able to get one. It is very bureaucratic.

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!
