Pros

Work is challenging and often exciting depending on which contract you work on. Offer tuition reimbursement so you can get your master's degree for free or close to it. Great 401K match.

Cons

Pay is somewhat low. Can be hard to advance and even if you do senior level work, they will not promote you unless you meet the minimum requirements.

Pros

every other friday off and 401k match

Cons

Leadership is what is not being done. HQ thinks their sites are working towards the same goal, however management are just checking off boxes to make them look good. Employees are doing the same because its just easier to accept then it is to complain. If you are in a click you will get promoted even if you can not handle the job..LMCO does well when following the peter principle. I find it amazing that this company is floating....i just wish they took pride in the employees as they do winning the bids. I wanted to work here so badly cause I thought I would be surrounded by smart adults that i would learn from, and instead i got a bunch of uncaring, disgruntle employees that are waiting to retire. I read the negative review and though it may come across that they are a bunch of unhappy people just complaining, they have valid points. For the past 3 years I though I had a problem until i relized other departments are having the same poor leadership issues. It is hard feeling like you are the only one that sees leadership needs a major overhall, and LPD program is not going to fix it, they are too young and 3 years does not fully develope you unless you are bringing leadership skills from previous jobs.

Pros

Very relaxed work schedule Plenty of vacation You get to work around airplanes

Cons

The job is not technically challenging, the technology moves very slow here. The company is very top heavy and provides very little opportunity for open competition for available positions to move up. Salaries are not competitive with the industry
