RTX reviews

Benefits declining rapidly with employees paying increased cost for what is left. OK for recent engineering grads or vets (revolving door well greased). Other disciplines need not apply. Defense industry is a specialty field. Moving to the larger commercial environment is challenging. Three "G's: Get in; Gain experience; Get out. Planning a long career at Raytheon requires an emergency fund for when they hire two replacement grads and you are "retired out" to the street.

There is some of the "Good Old Boy" network still in play. Men are more likely to be promoted over women. As a woman, I had to prove myself. More recently, layoffs have made Raytheon in North Texas an undesirable place to work.
