Pros

I spent around four years at Raytheon and gained titles, experience and knowledge needed to launch my career. I enjoyed some challenges and some engineers I worked with

Cons

The culture is dominated by toxic union culture, I cant even move a box without making sure union rep was there to do it for me. Unproductive and lazy causing motivated young employees to follow lead. Management structure is terrible so hopefully you get a great manger. Promotion/professional development are HORRIBLE. High performers are leveraged and not paid while lazy senior members make triple the amount and you will ned to fight for real pay increases. Got a 70% Pay bump when I left for another company

Pros

9/80 and every 2nd Friday off, generous vacation time.

Cons

The company is 100+ years old and functions almost entirely on inertia. Senior Management is totally disconnected from the day to day, and it shows in the content of their "community" video meetings. They talk about diversity but have no interest in applying it. Most of the time they totally ignore the needs of their disabled employees.
