Lockheed Martin reviews about "manager"

Was hired into HW, but was put in a different department and found out when they showed me my desk on day 1. Runs on people being passionate about their work, so they put in unpaid overtime to complete projects. The on-site culture expects this behavior and makes you feel uncomfortable about using your PTO. They pretend to prioritize employees over profit, but in reality, it's "profit over employees". The company says it values diversity/inclusion and such to employees' faces, but the on-site company culture is very different. I wasn't expecting much as engineering is a white male-dominated field, but I was at least expecting honesty or minimal commitment to the company's stated values. But somehow they managed to dig below the bar. Examples below: I have on several occasions worked 12+ hour days (even prior to 4/40 schedule). I've also heard people say they've worked 60+ hour weeks with unpaid overtime. As a young WOC, I was immediately treated as a secretary and had age-ist comments made against me on my first day of work and onward. When I reported this to my manager (a year later with documentation) they told me "That's just how it is". I also heard casual sexist/homophobic remarks being made. ** Pretty sure this differs from site to site, as I felt a lot more comfortable at a different site during a business trip. I was given specific terms on payment/fees for a business trip at the beginning of my assignment. Then ~4 months into the trip, I received an email that there was a "new agreement" in place that I was not notified of and didn't agree to. When I inquired further about the "new agreement", the person I spoke to said "At least we're not making you pay back X amount of dollars", even though that amount was correct in the original agreement and was paid prior to the "new agreement". When talking with HR, they provided me false information to "save" the company ~20 dollars even though it was a business expense. While the CDC was requiring Masking on-site, no one was doing it, and no one was enforcing it even after it was reported.

Very poor low quality managers Low communication skills / low culture Tight knit group based on loyalty not skill Big time revolving door i.e. run…

It’s a long list….as a former expat I was working overseas on F35 program and the company/management was doing great until 2021. In 2021 all went down hill, starting with management bullying employees, talking down to employees, making fun of employees. This has caused 95% turnover but now all the new employees are going through same experience and “ethics” as they call it does nothing to help poor employees going through this. Company makes you take ethics courses but doesn’t enforce ethics and always sides with higher level managers. Management trying to assign roles and responsibilities to employees who were not hired for those jobs. When employees voice their opinions, they are turned into HR for non-compliance. Even though their direct report manager is not on site, but management on site tries to bully them into doing these tasks. Only when higher managers go head to head, the management on site leaves the employee there alone. Management treats their friends who they hired differently than other employees who have been at the customers site for longer period of time. Examples:….LM employee hits another LM employee and the manager sweeps it and never reports any of this to LM or security. This same manager again tries to assault another employee, gets stopped and still nothing gets done by his manager or LM. All of this has been reported to LM HR and Ethics and they ignore it and side with their management. Management enforces policy as they see fit and only when it works for their advantage. Security system breaches happen and nothing gets reported by the management. When employees report them, nothing happens. List goes on and on and the worst part is that this has been brought up to HR, Ethics, directors, and they still keep the same management and people are still treated poorly. This is only specific to one expat site that I used to be at and this does not represent other managers/sites!

Program management teams can be actively hostile, software tools are old and there are no dedicated teams to deal with them, people managers can be totally disconnected from the day to day work but are still responsible for your raises. Upward mobility is general onto the program management teams, so dealing with toxic people.

Local plant is very mismanaged, no lean manufacturing or process improvement. Employees are expected to work fully independent, with no logistical support from other managers or employees.

Managers, Sr Managers, and HR are all in bed with each other and produce a very toxic environment. If you get into any of the other programs, I believe you have a good chance of having a great experience, but if you fall into the LRSS realm, you are in for a rough time unless you enjoy being a yes person.

Gov regulations are life...if you know you know.

Too rigid, and for a huge company the salary is very low. Help desk analyst tolerate a lot with managers not knowing how to do their job and asking analyst to basically remote into their computer and do their job. For example requesting equipment for new employees and terminating employees as well.
