Avantages
Raytheon is a very easy and safe place to work. If an individual enjoys a slow and comfortable pace of work they will enjoy working at Raytheon. The company is not the best place for an ambitious high achiever. The flexible work schedule (9/80) and ample time off are nice. In general employees are treated with respect. Lots of opportunities for growth in the future given the aging work force.
Inconvénients
Slow pace of work and advancement. There can be a glass ceiling in certain functional areas if you do not have a military background or engineering background. Working with the government is slow and not very interesting. Your counterparts on the government side are often not up to par in terms of their overall intellect and talent.
