Pros

The half dozen or so technically competent long time engineers who actually hold the corporate knowledge. Learn as much as you can from them before you get bored out of your skull.

Cons

Powerpoint presentations by the technically incompetent management seem to rule the place. No vision, no goals. Way behind current technology, no thought put into technology investment which explains why NCS went out of business. While the pay may be competitive, this place is no good for your career. The only product they have now a grip on is advanced EHF communications, but others are catching up quickly. All their other product areas have failed into oblivion due to reasons mentioned.

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!
