Lockheed Martin reviews about "manager"

Incompetent managers, have to really like systems engineeering to enjoy the work

My site is small and so opportunities may not always be present if you want to grow your career, you may have to relocate.

Lack of budget for travel to different LM & customer sites. Government programs (even highly ambitious NASA programs) can be very inefficient. Some programs place too much emphasis on remote work at the expense of in-person collaboration, while other programs emphasize on-site work while nearly neglecting remote workers. I have never worked in a classified area, but I have heard working each day in a classified area can feel isolating.

Promotions don't happen easily, growth ladder is selectively transparent (you have a clear path if the manager takes time to work with you), suggested work hours are under represented.

All the remote work makes comradery difficult. Slow processes, everything takes allot of time to get done.

It's hit or miss if you're going to be in a rigid and in the past group Managers pushing you to different groups to fill a gap, even when it's not your area of expertise

Incredibly bureaucratic policies and processes, and highly political managers. Relatively little room for career progression without going into management.

More supportive leaders within each business areas.

My manager changed and I ended up with someone who was unprofessional and toxic.
