Lockheed Martin Senior Field Engineer/Field Engineer reviews

There is a surprising lack of motivation and trust in the company here. Most days are spent waiting for trouble calls. That might just seem like whining, but I'm getting paid good money to essentially sit around. I'm the type of person that would prefer to stay busy so, for me, that's a "con".

Very low Base pay with long hours and constant shift work. Salary seems good at first but is really quite low at about $24/Hr or less. Pay rises are lower than CPI most years. Salary of about $90000 seems ok but is in actual fact well earned by mandatory and considerable overtime and long 12 Hr shifts. Highly skilled and experienced Emplyees are earning little more than minimum Award wages for longer hours worked plus National Employment Standard (NES) mandatory allowances.
