Pros

Raytheon offered me a reliable paycheck, so I had that going for me, which is nice. They do have a decent tuition reimbursement package, and I doubt that they'll fold - something that's not often said about companies in Southeast Michigan right now. Also, they throw decent parties.

Cons

The problem is, it was pure drudgery. Morale is low in all departments. There is no real room for advancement. Working overtime (or overnight) is the norm - but you won't get paid for it.

Pros

The ability to advance one's skill set through on the job training or continued education is second to none. The mentoring programs are also top notch.

Cons

It's a shame that the "way to get ahead" espoused by everyone at the company is to leave and then come back. That's not a way to retain top talent.

Pros

For those who have a desire to learn, Raytheon is a great place to be. There are plenty of classes taught by company experts, reimbursement for off-campus degrees, online resources, and good old-fashioned mentoring. There are many opportunities to be found for career advancement if you look in the right places.

Cons

Like any large organization, it can be tough to deal with several layers of management. Raises and promotions are highly dependent on the group you work with and can give individuals very different experiences.
