Good Place to work

Pros

Lockheed Martin is the only place that I have ever worked where pay is not the primary concern of the employees.

Cons

Just as it is with most major companies... Politics and who you know play a major part in your personal career growth.

Pros

Reasonable benefits, pay, and flex time.

Cons

Expect you to make up all appointments due to having flex time - it's like being an hourly worker. Annual appraisals pit employee against employee. Leads scape goat their team members, but management does not investigate. Most emplyees seems unhappy at all sites I have dealt with. Only 10-20% of emplyees win most awards and get raises above inflation (and yet they wonder why nobody goes into engineering anymore!).

Pros

Lockheed Martin is a great company to work for as the benefits are excellent. The 9/80 work schedule along with flexible hours is an added bonus. Many jobs are quite interesting and challenging, however be cautious of the many non technical routine and monotonous assignments that many engineers find themselves working.

Cons

There are many large programs and projects which is good. However, many engineers find themselves with a very small routine non-technical assignment. If you desire technical work choose your position very carefully. Many engineers are well paid document writers or readers, database managers, data collectors, meeting coordinators and moderators. Most of which require little engineering knowledge.
