First engineering gig, great summer internship experience so far

Tech student intern

Business Outlook

Pros

Really smart coworkers, really interesting work, and really important work. Also pays well for the area, including graduate education reimbursement. Most coworkers have a cynically optimistic view of the bureaucracy, which is refreshing.

Cons

Cubicles, limited career advancement opportunities (besides the grad education track), and Dilbert is no longer a hilarious cartoon for me because it's way too real. The bureaucracy, if not dealt with humorously, can be depressing.

Business Outlook

Pros

- Most Raytheon engineers are top notch. - They pay for overtime. - They encourage work / life balance - Compensation and benefits package is excellent.

Cons

- Raytheon can be a bit bureaucratic (although for an organization of this size, Raytheon is not too bad). - Classified work must be done in a secured environment, so you often cannot work at home.

good salary and benefits, poor, substandard supervisors and managers

Business Outlook

Pros

they have good pay compared to other companies and the benefits are good as well. just like any other company doing contract work, you don't know if you have a job around the end of the money year.

Cons

leadership, leadership, leadership. it is the hole in the side of the boat. they hire ex-officers who have no idea what they are doing and thus bring the entire team down. the company will hire you for one job and expect you to perform 3 or 4 more jobs on top of that. These are also jobs that normally have a higher salary too.
