Pros

When I was there, the job was very stable. I don't think it's like that anymore. People are nice. Some are really odd though (especially if you're an engineer).

Cons

No growth, especially if you're driven. Mundane work.

Pros

Pays decently well for the area, There's a lot of dead wood in the organization which makes it easy to be a "good" employee. Most senior management is located somewhere else, so if you do good work you'll be left alone. Global mentor program and training opportunities are exceptional if you know how to get hooked up.

Cons

Indianapolis is not head of a business unit, near a customer, or near the competition. If you're 28-40 years old there's always going to be someone who's done an OK job for 25 years ahead of you -even if you're considered a rising star. Indianapolis also gets fewer Holidays, less severance, and no Profit Share when compared to most other Raytheon sites. Being far from senior management also means that getting noticed is difficult. The line I hear most is "Aren't you happy you have a job?". The "One Raytheon" philosophy isn't true.

Pros

Working for Raytheon will expose you to a number of competent and experienced individuals. There is a lot to be learned from the older peers as long as you can find the right programs to work on where you can interact with these people.

Cons

The management team tends to be very disconnected from the people who they lead, often making decisions that run counter to the information they are given. The ability for younger engineers to advance and develop is hindered by the lack of focus by management on the topic.
