      Upper management is only focused on schedule and dates at expense of quality

      Staff engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Could be a fun place to work but requires a major culture shift

      Cons

      The culture and mentality of upper management is always looking for scapegoats for their failed planning. CEO allows the culture to interfere with success. Program almost a decade late yet being ran by the same management team. Where is accountability at the management level?

      Little Design, Much Integration

      Staff engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      9/80 Work schedule (every other Friday off), flexible hours. There is some technically challenging work to be had, but there is also competition to get those assignments.

      Cons

      Vast amount of monotonous design-entry work keeps many younger engineers underutilized. Limited path for advancement unless you leave engineering and become some sort of manager (either line manager or project / program manager).

      Chase the Contracts, keep networking

      Staff engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Challenging work environment where you can learn, grow and go far. Diversity is valued and encouraged. Main client is US Federal Government and there is always something new. Benefits for the "Old Lockheed" were outstanding, and many retirees have glowed enthusiastically about how good a place it was for them. Ethics Minutes are always good to view, and kudos for bringing HR/legal problems into the open.

      Cons

      Large awkward Management Structure. Little to no communication between many programs makes it impossible to know where career opportunities exist. Benefits for the "New Lockheed" are ho-hum, generic, and always increase in cost to employee from year-to-year. Programs are jealous of their own people making it difficult to move from one contract to another. The "now you are part of the Lockheed Family" is a thing of the past.
