- flex time requests rejected by exception only; rarely rejected - interesting, cutting edge work - excellent systems integration environment - diversity visible, not just talk - increasing opportunities for women and minorities in upper management - mentoring program

Cons

- some groups haven't caught up with corporate expectations - individuals of certain age and/or mindset don't handle non-white males in the workforce well - engineers, manufacturing, program management geographically scattered in area [minor unless you're driving here and there several times a day]

Pros

Working at Lockheed Martin is like having a part-time job, with full-time pay. I've been there for over 4 years, and have never, ever worked more than 40 hours a week. As a software engineer, you have enormous discretion over when/where to work. Since I can get the job done quickly, I probably make it to the office for only 5-6 hours a day. Combined with the 9/80 schedule, it's like having 3-day weekends all the time. The work can be interesting at times, especially since you are working with complex electronic systems.

Cons

The technology is older than at most Silicon Valley companies, so don't expect cutting-edge research/development. Some of the buildings don't have windows, so that sucks too. Also, most employees are pretty old.
