Stable, but stagnant and unhealthy - Senior Software Engineer Raytheon Employee Review

Pros

- Stable employment - Some opportunity to move within the company - Decent benefits

Cons

- Opportunities are based largely on office politics - Management is incentivized to hit financial numbers and seemingly nothing else, so incidents of true leadership intersecting with authority are few and far between - Motivation consists largely of threats of firing for being untruthful in time reporting (all stick, no carrot) - Upper management as of the merger makes comments that touch on political topics and obviously lean one way, but they consistently deny the issue of their bias - Top-down management - Career development is not substantively supported - Maintaining a security clearance is an intrusive hassle

Pros

Job opportunities, flexibility, pay, etc.

Cons

Raytheon doesn't value quality. The most thankless job in the company. Most are not technical and have no idea how to do their job as quality engineers.
