Business Outlook

Pros

Company wants to be an inclusive company respecting all people. SEtdp program is a great program for engineers with 5 to 10 years of experiance. Worklife balance is very good at my facility.

Cons

Benefits at RTSC are not the same as rest of the company. Advise anyone concidering Raytheon to join one of the real buisness units if you have a choise. RTSC does not get the same treatment.
