Vantaggi

There are some great employees, great benefits, and many opportunities to work your way around the company to learn more in various different areas. Flexible with time in attempts to help with work/life balance

Svantaggi

There are so many that my sentences might not even make sense, so bear with me. Leadership/management seems to be more about individual gain at the expense of great workers versus supporting and espousing the company values, for which it seems only lip service is paid. Great employees with stellar backgrounds are easily lost in the mix, if not subliminally forced into resignation, simply because only those willing to suck up and do what is best for that leader, rather than what is best for the company. There seems to be a great problem with power struggles at all levels. It can be hard for most employees to navigate the "he said, she said" aspect of the company, and lacking in that knowledge in decision-making will land you on a hidden black list that will make it nearly impossible to get hired into another internal role. Many managers operate purely on their emotions and make it very clear to employees that if you are not serving only what they want, you might as well get out, which greatly hampers your ability to take advantage of the multitude of career opportunities they tout. Also, if you are not willing to just about give up your free time in support of any effort, that is used against you, as you are seen as not being as dedicated. This, however, is only applicable to those employees who are not protected by nepotism or some other reason. This company is also incredibly wasteful, highly unethical, and extremely inconsistent in its' application of rules/policies. Complete tyrant managers and senior leaders seem to be protected, which makes most employees more apt to take their crap rather than report them, despite what their "initiatives" try to push. The company then takes limited sample "anonymous" employee surveys that no one actually thinks is anonymous, and therefore only get "overwhelmingly great responses", which only further the "this is how we always do it" attitude. There are complete imbeciles given promotions, many into leadership, without any proven abilities and management tries to brainwash you into thinking these people are valuable when their actual work says otherwise. Oh, and if that work is not done right, they make sure the underlings fix it, or else their performance reviews will reflect that.They always love to make a great scapegoat out of lower level employees. The Performance development process is a complete sham, as they have already selected their stars long before rankings and ratings are done, and everyone who has gone thought it before knows that. Most employees just play the game and fill it out, but no one expects to get anything but a "meets". Unless you are on their extremely obscure "high potential" list, you are always going to be on the outside. I know multiple "high potential" employees that I would not trust with pouring water into a glass without messing it up. It also seems like our customer is starting to catch wind of the BS, which has resulted in alot more surveillance and second looks at items that was not the case previously. This has just led to increased time to get anything done, and more stress and pressure passed down the the worker bees.

Vantaggi

Ho lavorato in Raytheon per oltre 4 anni e ho avuto un'esperienza fantastica. L'azienda ha offerto molte opportunità di apprendimento e crescita. Sono stato promosso due volte durante il mio mandato in azienda e la mia responsabilità è aumentata in modo significativo. Ho sentito che il mio management mi supportava e mi forniva il tutoraggio di carriera che cercavo. Mi sono sentito autorizzato e rispettato durante il mio periodo lì.

Svantaggi

Può essere difficile lavorare in una società di difesa così grande a causa di tutti i processi e la burocrazia. Le cose possono muoversi lentamente, devi essere paziente e scegliere le tue battaglie. Detto questo, se impari a lavorare all'interno del sistema, puoi avere un impatto significativo qui!
