Lockheed Martin reviews about "manager"

The work can be a bit dull and work culture isn't great.

The pay is probably the biggest con. That isn't to say I am severely underpaid, but in comparison to compaines like Bank of America, BCG, fintech, or other similar companies, I am paid far less. The other biggest con is that some of the technologies are outdated due to maintenance requirements of certain government contracts and such. For example, requiring some software to maintain a C++98 standard when we are on 2023.

Some senior managers are incredibly out of touch. Myself and numerous of my friends have also had terrible experiences with hiring managers, in regards to communication and simple respect. I'd maybe expect some of the things for an external candidate, but not for a long term internal employee. You have to truly fight and keep moving around to get a deserved promotion, which is a shame.

*Work in old building that has not been renovated *Building is kept very cold, quite uncomfortable

Too many micromanaging managers, not enough workers. Lots of turn around in facilities and management can’t figure it out. Union leadership and representation makes you stagnant and incapable of growing your knowledge and skills. Facilities equipment is outdated and leadership is in a run to fail mentality and then won’t pay for expensive parts even when it does fail. No training to stay current on industry technologies. Do not get duped thinking you are going to work for the best or an industry leader when you go to work for Lockheed Martin Space, they build spacecrafts in barns.

Fast-paced environment, but it is expected with the line of work.
