Lockheed Martin Quality Engineer reviews

Things can move very slowly, management isn't the greatest, most that are promoted into those roles are just on track to reach the next level. Work satisfaction is very dependent on the business unit and location you're working in.

Slow advancement for engineers. Very metrics driven. The people who move up in the company are the people who are willing to be creative with their personal metrics. 't decreased defects by 50% this year.' . . . . no you actually just covered up 50% of the defects. Giant corporation with the usual politics. I did 2 years in aircraft design which was fun, but it didn't seem like there was much opportunities for career growth there (especially because the airplane is already designed). I've just completed 2 years in Quality. I feel like I'm just tracking problems, not actually doing any technical problem solving.
