Pros

A wide variety of opportunities including expatriate contracts, reasonably competitive pay within defense industry, good overall benefits package. A good work/life balance within US federal contracts. In my experience, a low tolerance for workplace harassment.

Cons

401(k) matching does not match defense industry leaders. For positions within the US, the company has recently shifted from offering health insurance plans to making lump sum contributions to a health savings account.

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!
