Pros
The job is incredibly easy, and it is almost completely impossible to be fired. You should join if you are looking for an easy career/have responsibilities at home/want to settle down and never work more than 1-4hrs a week and get paid a low-end engineering salary.
Cons
I'd say that 50/100 employees at Raytheon are a complete waste of resources and don't contribute anything to the welfare of the company or to national security. Another 49/100 contribute at least somewhat, but at a significantly lower quality and volume than an average employee in a competitive commercial company. The last 1/100 employees are engineering fellows that keep the company going and are experts at herding sheep. If you join Raytheon, be prepared to: - Never be challenged—even if you go out of your way to participate in extra work/activities - Never be promoted for merit - Never be monetarily compensated for large accomplishments or strides of effort - Slowly lose your competency/"competitive edge" as you stay at Raytheon—I'd estimate a loss of 1 IQ point a year - Lose motivation to better yourself and stay intellectually stimulated
