Pros

-Work life balance -Benefits are fairly good -Interesting work that serves our country -Ethical working environment -Good people to work with -Flexible work schedule and business casual dress code -Merit increases have been fairly consistent each year, but do not always keep up with inflation or increased cost of benefits

Cons

-Job security is fairly low - Your job is only as safe as the program you are working on and your last performance review. However, if you are willing to move around, you can typically find another job in the company when your current job ends. -Benefits are declining all the time - Cost goes up and value goes down. However, I would say that is consistent trend with most companies. -There is almost no spending on employee moral or team building. Award budgets are similarly small.

Pros

Every other friday off. Which is only at some lockheed locations. It depends on what business unit you're in.

Cons

Bureaucratic. Stuck in the 80's. No windows. I will say it is dependent on your location and business unit. This company is too big to trust one review written. Every business unit has it's own culture and almost functions as a different company.

Pros

The employees at LM are very talented and dedicated to meeting customer needs. LM also has very good compensation and benefits.

Cons

LM has a very hierarchical management structure that does not empower employees and take advantage of their talent. I also found managers to be more focused on managing up rather than taking care of their people. The company is too focused on technical skills and not enough on program/project management skills resulting in customer dissatisfaction with cost and schedule performance of programs.
