Pros

Flexible hours make working here tolerable.

Cons

Cheap, won't adopt new technology, consistently underbid contracts to win them, and the engineers pay the piper later. Leadership has nosedived in quality since Collins merger. Pay is stagnant. There is no way to make a career here. Staying too long will turn you untouchable as your skills become irrelevant, which is probably how they plan to address the attrition problem. The whole company is being forced back to hybrid or full-time on-site.

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!
