Talk to a current employee you trust before taking a job at this Raytheon location...
Pros
Solid benefits package, pride in supporting our Nation's military. Raytheon has a good reputation in the Defense industry as an employer. Some benefits of working for larger Raytheon business units trickle down to smaller locations such as Indianapolis. Work life balance is very good.
Cons
Highly political environment, top heavy management structure means little chance for advancement. Job descriptions provided during hiring process are grossly exaggerated in terms of responsibility and challenge offered. I was lied to about crucial career decisions and opportunities several times during my time at RTSC Indy. Leadership there will tell you anything to get you on board, but once you are there it is a different story - must be the bait and switch capital of the corporation. I kept expecting to bump into The Smoking Man at any moment and have him remind me to "trust no one..."
