Pros

Benefits are great and so are my colleagues.

Cons

Base salary is horrible compared to other software engineers of at my level. We are using waterfall methodology masked with agile terms.

Pros

I'm only posting this so I can help a friend find jobs to apply for. I have literally no opinions about Lockheed that would make me uneasy about recommending it as an employer.

Cons

I guess the health benefits are kind of janky. It's a high-deductible health plan, meaning unless you're spending $2k a year on medical bills, most of your basic costs are coming out of pocket. But they also give a pre-tax health savings account so I GUESS it balances out?

Pros

Biggest pro is job security. If you're looking for a stable job, with good pay, good benefits, and you don't care at all about the kind of work that you're doing - this is the place for you. People are either really cool or really not, totally team-dependent.

Cons

Biggest con is falling so behind technically. I'm a software engineer who makes 6 figures but hasn't written a single line of code for work in 2 years. Pay was good enough to get me to stay the last few years, but if you're looking to develop your skills and become a strong engineer, this is not the place for you.
