RTX reviews

In no specific order of importance: - Since the merger of Raytheon and UTC, the culture has changed dramatically for the worse. Leadership no longer prioritizes the warfighter. The company prioritizes DE&I, being woke, being green, and financial performance far before the warfighter. Raytheon builds technologies meant to defend the US and its Allies and destroy its enemies. It is deeply disturbing that the CEO of such a company would state that DE&I is his number one priority. I would think making sure that our products are the best they can be given that they determine life or death would be more important. I was wrong. The company culture since the merger has clearly gone hard woke left. Woke leftists will excel at RTX. Anyone else need not apply. - The company actively discriminates against white males much to its own detriment. - The company does not care about your rights under the law as an employee. RTX of course complied with the Biden vaccine mandate but did so in a horrendous way. Anyone who desired a religious exemption was asked probing questions which were the most egregious violation of the Civil Rights act I have seen in my lifetime. The company has posted that anyone applying for a position that requires a religious exemption must provide a letter from a faith leader. That is disgusting, illegal, and immoral. - The company recently changed the pay grades as a result of the merger. This has removed promotion paths for mid-level employees. The positions still exist with more work and responsibility, but the company expects employees to take them for no additional pay where before one could get a promotion. - Company reaction to COVID has been abysmal. Employees are treated like children. - Leadership is just out of touch with their employees in general.

The training was terrible. They want diversity but expect everyone to learn the same. I was hired from a different industry with no analyst experience and had a steep learning curve. Within the first 3 months of my hire date, management started to treat me unfairly because I was not catching on quickly enough. Employees will throw you under the bus to save themselves. Once I got a negative reputation in the department, the environment became hostile. I spent too many days to count crying in the bathroom, car, and parking lot because my contributions were dismissed, I was highly misunderstood, and labeled a problem employee. People literally lied on me, misquoted me, sabotaged me, and the end of it all, I was left holding the bag. Management and tenured employees would not let me forget the mistakes I made. I felt non-existent and distrustful of management. They would say one thing and change the story later. I left because I could not handle the nice/nasty attitudes. I believe in my heart that it is the culture and not the people. Everyone was great on a personal level, but watch your back on a professional level because favoritism runs a muck.
