Pros

The best part about working at Lockheed is the work itself. It is challenging and just plain cool. The people are great, and there is genuinely a team mentality on the projects you will be on. The 4/10's which give way to 3 day weekends every weekend is a plus.

Cons

Human Resources and upper management don't really care about their employees. They talk/email a good game, but when it comes to delivering on their words with actions, they don't. Corporate profits and upper management bonuses are consistently put ahead of employee pay (about 25% below market) and safety. If you need Human Resources for anything, forget about it. You are better off talking to the wall; as you will get more relevant feedback from the wall.

Pros

Great people to work with Unionized

Cons

Oh boy... Insurance deductibles that start off at 5% of your annual gross salary Extremely low wages compared to the rest of the industry Management has a very "shoot first, ask questions later" attitude about discipline Shift to shift dynamics are toxic at best and completely dysfunctional at worst We don't get Veteran's Day off despite all our work going towards "bringing the warfighter home" They won't even give us refrigerators in the break rooms to keep our food fresh Mold in the ceiling tiles Non-remediated lead dust and fumes Dangerous chemicals Roaches in the break rooms and bathrooms Little to no room to move up within the company, most management and engineering is hired from outside sources The company values sound great on paper, but unfortunately most of the people working there have let those values fall by the wayside in favor of cutting one another's throats in an effort to gain favor from the higher-ups.

Pros

Great team, great management, great benefits, and Waterton is amazing.

Cons

There's a few people that have advanced and are absolutely terrible for the teams. Dealing with certain departments can be less than productive. The biggest problem is the culture within management. Most work 60hrs plus and dont even think twice about expecting that of peers and subordinates.
