RTX reviews

For a company that says its employees are its most valuable and important asset experience proves this to be not true. Every year the company reduces headcount through lay-offs to make their numbers look better. 99% of their business is DOD/IC related so seeing them lay-off veterans is pretty sad, especially when many of the senior leadership has never served in the military. They like to play the big numbers game and seem to have lost sight of what is really important, serving the customer and taking care of its employees. Additionally, way too much internal competition that gets in the way of collaboration and actually helping the end customer solve complex issues with smart solutions.

* Can be cliquey - much like high school * Some paranoid people - lack of trust for no reason * Senior management is not approachable/visible * Some people are stuck in their ways * Change is difficult - often have to do things the "Raytheon way", just because * Poor communication between managers and employees * Lack of transparency * No formal telecommuting policy * Hypocrisy - huge emphasis is placed on respect, yet many people don't even acknowledge co-workers in the hall * Many levels makes it difficult to complete projects * Difficult to get promoted/move into new roles. You are losing talented people.
