Good people, good missions, but...

Engineering manager

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great missions, great people, flexible work schedule, 9/80 work week.

Cons

Benefits have dramatically decreased in the 15+ years I've worked here. Executive management and HR continually try to claim the opposite. Also, talent is walking out the door every day, and I've seen nothing to reverse this trend. The company is sitting on a ton of cash, and yet very little get distributed to common employees. New bonus plan is an insult for mid career employees.

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Mostly great people, smart, sharp, talented, hard working. The business itself is exciting and you have a lot of pride being associated with a company like this. Reputation is fantastic and what this company does is cutting edge and trend setting.

Cons

There's definitely a good old boy network, where friends look out for friends. Management believes the first thing they hear about an employee, right or wrong. The employee performance management system is flawed and unethical: management must rate their team in order of value and importance and it's all dependent on what the manager (or the managers manager) thinks of the employee. People are kept around because of who they know, not what they know.

Rewarding mission creates positive career opportunities.

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The mission is to bring people home everywhere, every time. This makes it rewarding and satisfying to support our daily objectives. There seems to be lots of new opportunities to collaborate across Lockheed and likely new career opportunities for those interested in other challenges.

Cons

There has been a lot of transition after Sikorsky was acquired by Lockheed, but there has been good and positive communication throughout the year.
