Employee Review of Raytheon - Check out more reviews of working at Raytheon

Difficult work environment. Employees who have been in the company for many years resent new employees. Watch out for backstabbing and covert hostility. It's a "who you know, who you blow" environment in the worst possible way. Long term employees work the system, ride each other's charge numbers, milk jobs for overtime and take lots of stuff home. Upper elitist management seems unaware...and mostly seem too caught up in their own "success" and self promotion to properly manage a team. Annual raises are less than 2 percent, unless you have an inside track with your manager. The "Respect" campaign is nauseating. The more "Respect-O-Grams" that appear in your email, the less respect actually shown. And Who writes the respect-o-grams anyway...most have nothing to do with respect, or don't make sense at all. Satisfying work with meaning is little if any. The facility is outdated. I am so dissapointed. I felt I would have a future at this company, but it is now abundantly clear there is now career advancement opportunity. The stress can be overwhelming. Eager to find another opportunity where employees are actually respected. If you come to this company to work and your coworkers say they are "legacy Hughes" or "Legacy TI", BEWARE! I can't tell you the number of sleepless nights and stress...I will be sooooo glad to leave.
