Pros

-Many of the engineers you will have the pleasure of working with are truely top notch -You will have the opportunity to work on a variety of projects

Cons

-Working on a variety of projects means you are failing to develop a core competency in your discipline which makes it difficult to get experience that can be applied elsewhere -Lockheed Martin is a Matrix Managed Organization. This means that at any one time you will have 3+ managers. In practice, this means the manager figuring out when you should get promoted or raises will have no real insight to what work you actually do. -The "pay for performance" is a joke. Management seems to rotate high and low ratings so everyone advances in pay at about the same rate over the long term, regardless of performance or actual contributions

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.
