Pros

- This company is one of the most innovative and leads the world in defense weaponry and aerospace engineering. - Most promote the core values of strong leadership, respect for one another, and strong direction. - You will get as much responsibility as you are willing to take on.

Cons

- Some employees want to be impossible and will make your life impossible simply because they are miserable and unfortunately they are in a position to do so. - Not a strong work/life balance, finding myself working 70 to 80 hours per week. - This company will never admit that a schedule or budget is not possible so the work atmosphere tends to be high stress, with management always believing specific tasks and budgets are feasible when from the get go they were clearly not. - Non-technical management makes the Master Schedule and provides the budgets with usually very little engineering input which makes for way over-blown budgets and missed milestones.

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.
