Pros

Pros to working at Lockheed are that there are plenty of opportunities to cross over to different jobs as you gain experience with how the company operates.

Cons

If you are an hourly employee such as an aircraft Field Service Mechanic, there is a high possibility of going through difficult financial times as a result of layoffs, recalls, and Union strikes.

Good life work balanced depending on the program you work. Flexible schedule, good amount of vacations.

Cons

There are layoffs every couple of years.doing more IT role then actual software. Lose your programming skills if not kept up. May work overtime and weekends. Management doesn't care much because of culture.

The company is in the process of trying to lower it labor rate in order to be more affordable. This means that there will be layoffs until their rates are more competitive.

Bad Management

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

For a hourly employee, you will get a small raise every quarter. You also get a very small increase every year due to cost of living.

Cons

The management is really bad. Constantly having mandatory OT. Most of the time they do not tell you until friday. It is a 24/7 operation which means you end up working 7 days a week. No work/life balance. Constantly having layoffs as well.
