Pros

Big company with lots of opportunities to move around, both individually and corporately. If you don't like one job, there's always another waiting around the corner to try.

Cons

Little upward opportunities within the same group. Advancement comes by changing groups (which means a lot of groups have a lot of new people). Loosing depth of experience to learn from.

Pros

When I started with Lockheed it was a much better run Engineering related company. It is a great place to work if you are well liked by management and have the necessary education levels they prefer. The benefits are among the industry's best for the old timers (PENSION) but not as appealing for the newer employees.

Cons

In some instances it can be an Good Ole Boys club where the ones the kiss butt make out at raise time and job assignments. I am sure it is about the same in most Government supported (welfare) defense contractors.
