Pros

Good work life balance. Fitness center and cafeteria at site, meals are not free. Hiking trail and pond if you are feeling like going for a walk.

Cons

Cost of living and housing is very high in the area, definitely not the move if you are looking to settle down or wanting to buy a house.

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!
