Pros

Place an emphasis on diversity Promote job rotations and career development Most leaders are great and easy to talk to great benefits & work life balance a lot of training opportunities if you are considered high potential continuously improving over the past couple years LDP allows select few employees to rotate to gain broad experience

Cons

not clear on promotion requirement HR is not the best middle management are mostly mediocre hard to lose people that are non-value added resistant to change at some sites that I worked HR does not help LDPs enough to look for good positions It's all about connections

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!
