Great products from a decent company with odd business practices

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The comany has a great name, a great image, and takes care of their employees. Flexible work schedules with compensatory time (trading overtime for vacation) further improves work + life balance. Knowing you are helping to defend this wonderful country is a great added bonus.

Cons

The company is oversized, bloated, and bureaucratic do to the nature of business conducted with the Department of Defense. It takes forever and costs gazillions to make anything happen. Facilities are outdated (desks, cubicles, etc) and cubicle life is not fun. No natural light in the buildings. Sometimes you feel like a tiny cog in a huge complex machine wondering if you actually make a difference.

Lockheed Martin Transportation & Security was my worst professional decision.

Systems engineer associate

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Lockheed Martin Transportation & Security allowed me to take vacation as I saw fit. There was never a time when I was asked not to take vacation.

Cons

There is a lot of bureaucracy involved at Lockheed Martin Transportation & Security. I was not given much work to do for the first six months of my employment and the work given was not indicative of my education or experience. Management was not capable of alleviating my concerns and was content to bill me to the customer for work that I was not allowed to do and never actually did.
