Working at Raytheon in Tucson, AZ: 63 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Tucson, AZ Area

"The best electrical company on the planet."

"Raytheon was an excellent company to work for. As the Program Manager of SW development for the FMS version of AMRAAM it allowed me to work with a diverse group of individuals – from internal SW IPT team members, the USG customer, to our foreign customers. I was able too involve our international customers in the end testing of our product on a test range at the Arctic Circle in Northern Sweden. These events took up to 4 years of planning from test range contract establishment, selection and scheduling of the foreign customer’s air force at test plan working group meetings (deployed aircraft and support crews), to USG approved export of the required test assets. This was the most enjoyable aspect of my job. Working for Raytheon allowed me to have these experiences with over 31 missile launches over a 16 year period!"
