Lockheed Martin

Is this your company?

Could be good place to work, but defense budget cuts continue to loom. - Systems Engineer Principal Lockheed Martin Employee Review

Pros

Industry-leading benefits package, especially medical and dental. Company is professional, and politics were there but not pervasive. Company wants to do a good system integration job for the DoD, but budget uncertainty over the past few years in Congress makes high-level managerial decisions difficult.

Cons

This is a system integrator, so if you are an engineer looking for interesting technical work look elsewhere. Also, there is no grace here if there is a budget cut by the DoD. You'll be given 2-4 weeks to find another position in Lockheed. If you can't (and 2 weeks is hardly enough time), then you are out the door--just like any place else these days.

Pros

High level of integrity throughout the company, open communications, and sincere interest in doing the right thing.

Cons

Unfortunately, I need to come up with twenty words of cons. When in reality after 41+ years in IT, I have no cons for Lockheed Martin. They are not perfect, but highly acceptable.
