Pros

Work-Life Balance is amazing and the job is extremely flexible about when you work, as long as you work your 40 hours.

Cons

If you want a pay raise that matches the industry standard, one must leave the company, or switch departments to earn a promotion or a raise that is greater than 3% a year. If one is promoted within a department they might expect to only receive a 6% raise, whereas leaving the company or switching departments they should expect a 15-20% raise.

Pros

Good benefits - HSA contribution, 401K match, bonuses, achievement awards, tons of PTO, etc. Every other Friday off (9/80 schedule) Managers are flexible and reasonable

Cons

Very few employees seem happy. Attrition is expected to be 30% this year, causing more workload and stress on the employees who stay Bonuses were very low this year, not matching the rate of inflation Corporate has no handle on HR issues - instead pushes political agendas and DEI rather than addressing employees' concerns Vaccine mandate People who are working from home are more appreciated that employees who are forced to come onto plant site every day Poor relationship with government also weighs down morale

Pros

Over a dozen years with Raytheon, superior performance reviews recieved, yet terminated for vax mandate after they denied religious exemption. After all the vac requirements were over turned by courts, they are still forcing employees to vax. Individual medical decisions being invalidated by company bureaucracy! I.miss my coworkers and management org, leadership has failed us all.

Cons

Corporate leadership is steering ship in the wrong direction.
