Lockheed Martin reviews about "training"

Can't really think of any. Many people gossip, so that could get worse. Stay relevant with your skills. If you don't then you'll be on the slate to be laid off when they're forced to make cuts. Best advice to be given.

Management is the worst I have had to deal with. the RAS does not provide acceptable training and will get upset when you don't know how to do it you will need to look to other techs to train you to do your job. we are with out parts and tools and put down. Management is aware of this and just allows it to happen leaving us looking for a new job. other then the long time techs who feel trapped no one stays they leave the company or transfer to new areas

- You will never ever see budget for training - Promotion only when some leaves or retires - Pays far below average for your skillset - Poor communication from management - Your views aren't taken into consideration on how to improve the department - No scope for flexible working

Job orientation and training weak.

It is difficult to get rid of deadbeat employees. There are many employees who coast to retirement. Too little low scoring employees on evaluations. Lockheed tends to let low performers hang on for decades. Need to clean house more often. Many facilities are terrible. Look like the DMV or 1970's furniture, cublicles. Major problem for the next generation of employees. Too often, tenure is valued more than actual technical skills. This is changing, but is still an issue. A young employee may have incredible coding skills, but is denied promotion because the culture tends to only give promotions every 3-5 years.

You kind of get lost in the corporate aspect of the business

Training opportunities Management communication Sick time policy Promotion & Pay Raise

Pretty much everything else. The company especially likes to shove their yearly profit and future profit desires right in your face, but that doesn't mean that those who work hard will see a reward. I'm not naive, but I can only stand a certain level of hypocrisy. As a veteran, I expected a private contractor to milk the government, but I didn't expect that mentality to be so prominent and blatant. What's worse is that they try to force creativity, but the moment you share a legitimate idea, they take it while trying to make you think they're doing you a favor. For instance, during a presentation, we were told a story about how an employee had an idea that led to a new product which made a lot of money. When asked what happened to the employee, we were told he actually quit, didn't keep a % of the profit, not giving a decent promotion, and basically all the opposite of fair or logical. There is simply too much, I'd recommend to assume whatever other aspect besides your coworkers to be at a mediocre to terrible caliber. Pay, facilities, equipment, initial training, etc.

Processes feel slowed down due to the detail of work.
