LM creates some amazing technology, but internal processes to make them come to life are disorganized and inefficient. - Anonymous employee Lockheed Martin Employee Review

Pros

Competitive wage to work ratios in many cases, flexible schedules, and reasonable work life balances for many, but not everyone.

Cons

Within the IT realm at LM, understanding who does what and where in the company is a career in itself. Internally there is so much duplication of work that getting anything done takes what seems like eons because under each employee's roof, different processes exists and different people are doing the same thing unknowingly. The spread of team members beyond all geographic borders hinders employees from being on the same page and working efficiently. Not to mention the red tape slows processes to a snail-like pace while life outside the company is advancing at light speed.

Pros

High level of integrity throughout the company, open communications, and sincere interest in doing the right thing.

Cons

Unfortunately, I need to come up with twenty words of cons. When in reality after 41+ years in IT, I have no cons for Lockheed Martin. They are not perfect, but highly acceptable.
