Lockheed Martin reviews about "manager"

- I'm sure your experience will vary from location to location, but the Valley Forge facility is an outdated and poorly maintained building. Very little is spent on the maintenance and aesthetic to the building. Just feels gross. - If you are working unclassified, your manager will most likely be remote. Some remote managers poorly equipped to manage remote teams, and have very little visibility into their teams performance or areas that require attention. This is challenging for early career employees. -Poor health benefits -No employee stock purchase program

The CEO worships at the altar of Diversity and most of the managers drink the cool aid. They are inclusive as long as you are part of the post-modern culture. Typical big company problems such as fear of failing to find success.

Very much still an engineering company so while it is a good place to learn the basics, there is a lack of advanced projects for employees in Sikorsky's analytics organization to work on. After working in the analytics organization at Sikorsky in CT, I have worked for 2.5 years and have had 4 different managers in the group. There is extremely high turnover due to lack of group making big measurable impact on the company. As a result most people learn a good skill set on the companies dime and then go use it to make an impact in a different area. Very much an old mans company. Obviously this comes down to the group you are placed in but for the most part the average age is on the older side. The particular group I am placed in is sort of like a mission control. Open seating means no cubicles. This is great when you are learning because you can easily ask a lot of questions, but once you know what you're doing distractions become annoying.

Trying to make everyone the same.

Good ol boy network of managers (think Golf playing, Country Club, the "in" zip code or residential subdivision, Smoking Area clique, etc). When the layoffs and restructurings come which they do often, if you don't suck up to the Manager du jour you will be the first ones to go without any consideration for skill set or job performance.

Insurance was not that good. It was also costly. I thought the management team was clueless. I knew they were when we had mandatory White Men and diversity training. Crazy that they thought was an appropriate topic considering most of our managers are not men, or white.

different personalities with manager

Managers do not always understand their role.
