Pros

Raytheon SAS is a great place to work in order to gain research experience and to develop skills in the scientific community.

Cons

Being a recent acquisition from another company results in a lot of people talking about how it used to be which can be really discouraging. The company got bought out... get with the times.

Pros

The general population in the engineering department is nearing retirement. While there are still some talented employees, a motivated new person hire can run circles around them. The general short-term nature of projects in comparison to other Raytheon business units allows engineers to see the entire process quickly - making advancement and growth easier to obtain than other business units. Management is very responsive to employees who do good work and are looking to grow. The relative size of most programs makes it easy to stand out.

Cons

RTSC does not get the same benefits (profit sharing, holidays) as the rest of Raytheon. Training budgets are smaller, so employees looking to grow need to do some work on their own time. Pay at RTSC is less than similar positions at other Raytheon Business Units. RTSC's low cost structure results in a relatively flat management structure, making this a difficult place to bridge from engineer to manager. Product development spending is light, which makes it easy to shine if you do work on your own, however, this is not the place to work if you are a research oriented engineer.

Pros

The compensation, benefits and work/life are good.

Cons

Very few opportunities for advancement, individuals are rewarded more for their ability to play politics rather then their actual contributions.
