Pros

Interesting technology, decent benefits, nice coworkers.

Cons

No budget for product improvement, new product development, or new equipment, but $6B to buy back stock. Management is using cash to buy back company stock! That's done to drive up stock price so retiring managers can make a windfall on their stock sales. Merger with UTI coincided with stock buybacks. Basically, UTI bought a taxpayer-funded defense contractor and is milking it for its profits while starving it. Raytheon was the ONLY profitable company in the completed merger. Collins Aerospace and P&W were on their knees. R/D funding is non-existent. Poor product yield is baked into the price, so no, nobody cares about product improvement. Just keep pumping out stuff developed 30 years ago. Virtually nobody left who is capable of developing new products.

Pros

Solid portfolio of interesting technologies

Cons

Corporate leadership, upper management, middle management. Company becoming a widget factory with little to no investment into future technologies. Senior technical talent being squeezed out by crappy corporate policies and shortsightedness by management.

RTX is not the company it once was!

Pros

When I first started with Raytheon the company had great contracts and solid management more than a dozen years ago. Several contracts later and an overseas position, I found many opportunities with the company, it was challenging and rewarding work!

Cons

Then United Technologies purchased Raytheon and many things changed. What was once core contracts with solid engineering has been downgraded to after thoughts and pure chaos. I am no longer with RTX and have no faith this company can survive being striped of its equity and talented employees fleeing to other opportunities within the aerospace community. Will Missle systems be sold off to appease the woke CEO and board? Let the bean counters rule!
