Pros

Lockheed, Huntsville is a great facility that really cares for employees. There are many opportunities for a person to grow and hone engineering skills, and most of the management is very helpful to making sure their employees are satisfied. The pay is above average, and Lockheed typically stays on the cutting edge of defense programs.

Cons

They took away BCBS as a health insurance option, and the vision plan stinks if you don't use the chain vision centers. Most of the programs are large, and with that comes large program politics.

Pros

Health benefits, average pay. There is a fair respect for employees flexing their time, but some government contracts require overtime (non-paid). Most Lockheed sites are very nice, but I work at an Air Force base. Our accomodations are falling apart - but Lockheed save money on our overhead.

Cons

The managers have not succeeded in normal worker communications. Most are very transparent when it suits them. After 35 years I'm finally getting fed up. (35 years - I'm an idiot) At appraisal time, the same average rating is given time and again.

Pros

Flexibility when it comes to trying out different roles on a program.

Cons

Lack of external training. Training is almost impossible to get unless its in house, which is usually hit or miss.
