Some of the smartest people with whom you can work

Engineering fellow

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Intellectual challenge for analyzing, building, and testing advanced sensors. Managers recognize effective communication as well as thorough analysis of a problem and innovative solutions. "Hire a bunch of really smart people and let them figure out what they're supposed to do."

Cons

New grads can get lost. Many of the most interesting projects are classified. Accounting system does not motivate programs to mentor or train junior engineers.

Raytheon SAS El Segundo

Electrical engineer i intern

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The best reasons to work for Raytheon SAS would be for the pay, location, and if you don't want to work hard. I worked in LA where it never rains and is always sunny. The company offers flex time so you get every other friday off. Also if you aren't a early person, you can come in later and stay later.

Cons

The downsides of working at Raytheonn SAS is you aren't challenged at all. You don't see much of your manager. My manager was in a seperate building and didn't have any engineering experience. If you aren't a go getter and don't take charge of your career you can get left behind in this huge company.

Business Outlook

Pros

Working with very technically competent people on advanced technology.

Cons

Poor support of training opportunities when the company will be paying for it. Merit raises are almost an insult given the rate of inflation. Merit raises for high performers should at least help improve the life of the person who is bringing value to the company.
