Pros

Large, stable company with diverse markets. Friendly people (mostly). Flexibility to move around to different roles internally. Good benefits with decent understanding of work life balance.

Cons

Large company - can be challenging to earn recognition and career growth. As a high performer their is little inventive (beyond your own work ethic) to continue being a high performer. Literally all options for advancement seem to be "a lateral move" as far as compensation is concerned, which can discourage a good work ethic.

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!
