Pros

Flex work week and that's about it

Cons

Low salaries, no relevant training, management is older and unqualified only in position due to years served, old boys club, conform or be isolated, no accountability, bully atmosphere, they say they have a mentor program but that's a joke, ethics, what ethics, HR is only there to protect the bad managers and image, claim they use best practices and leading edge which is the furthest from the truth. mid year and end of year review is the worst I have seen and a waste of time, changes every year, lots of meetings and waste of time

Pros

Lockheed provides may opportunities for working overtime. It also has great benefits! The benefits at Lockheed far exceed what many other companies offer. The hours available are very convenient for any worker. They offer 3 different shifts and close the plant for the week of Christmas. Managing your 401k is very simple due to the online, employee only website. An employee may also use this sight to check their paycheck, change their direct deposit, and keep up with their vacation time. Vacation time is earned with every hour that is worked. Therefore, if you work a lot of overtime, then you earn more hours. At this time, I have over 3 weeks of vacation available to me and I have already taken 2 weeks of vacation this year!

Cons

Lockheed tends to promote "friends" of management. They do not regularly promote for hard work and dedication. As an employee that has 21 years of experience in aviation that also holds a bachelor's degree in aviation as well as a master's degree in professional areonautics, it becomes very frustrating that my boss does not even hold a high school diploma! Lockheed in Fort Worth tends to hire people who have little to no experience because they "know" someone. Also, Lockheed in Fort Worth has a union. As a salaried employee, it is frustrating to manage union employees because it is very difficult to enforce a good work ethic.
