Pros

Raytheon have great contractual working hours. (Finish early on Fridays!). Since working here, I have been pushed to take on new opportunities and experiences constantly to improve on my skills and knowledge. Personal development reviews are firmly placed with regular refresh on how I am doing to achieve them. It is clear that there is support available to help achieve them, not only from my team but from wider functions and departments are also willing to assist. (Eg training and mentors are provided) In terms of working hard - The functional team have recognised the effort and can sometimes receive rewards, so working hard isn't taken for granted at Raytheon.

Cons

Although Raytheon have good contractual hours, most of the time, the work load require you to do a lot more unpaid overtime. - quicker processes are required (eg, IT and softwares issues needs to improve and resolved to increase efficiency)

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!
