Pros

None of value beside high salary in the area

Cons

Not a typical engineering company. I have not seen a company like this and don’t think it will survive too long. Its unlike any other company - Any engineering concept is twisted before using and huge objection to any standard methods. Measurements that require instruments in other companies are done by experts using naked eye, data is not valued BS is. Anyone coming from any manufacturing company is going to get frustrated among bunch of technicians who have no idea about what happening outside in manufacturing world and they grow to become managers directors too. Salary is good and its a trap so you cant leave easily but it comes at a cost of severely frustrating you. Won’t recommend to anyone educated, knowledge seeking growth oriented person. If you are desperate go ahead.

Pros

9/80 work week. Work life balance is good (if you don't work on the assembly line).

Cons

Where to begin...… benefits are not very good. The high deductible health plan for salary employees sucks! Compensation for salary employees is terrible! Shareholders weren't happy with their returns so the company is taking benefits away from the salaried work force to reduce cost which increases share holder value. No pension after 2020. Other than a paycheck, there is no real incentive to working for Lockheed Martin anymore.

Pros

Stable Looks good on a resume Large company

Cons

Clueless management Communication, inter-department gossip is typically how you find out about upcoming changes or issues. Lack of responsibility/ownership, don't be surprised if at the end of they year, you didn't achieve things you had no idea where even a thing. On the opposite end, those that over-promise and fail to meet promises are rewarded for "stretch" goals.
