Lockheed Martin reviews

Career advancement is difficult. In-line promotions (getting promoted while working the same program/contract) is rarely accomplished. Most of the time, one has to move to a different program/contract to be able to negotiate a promotion. Additionally, because of the nature of government contracting, one can find themself without work very quickly if the program funding gets cut or delayed. You will likely be able to stay employed for awhile, but if too many programs get cut and too many people don't have work, you risk getting laid off. Sometimes you have to stick around on a stable, but less interesting program/contract in order to get through tougher times. Only one health plan to choose from, although that seems to be happening at other companies these days as well.

narrow job focus, limited room for diverse learning, not focused on finance/accounting since engineering brings in the revenues
