Pros

Currently on my second program and what I will say is that you will learn a lot. Lockheed Martin is growing exponentially with all the new business and we need folks across multiple functions. The opportunity to move into different areas and locations is one of the main reasons why I wanted to work at Lockheed. You will learn a lot but you have to want to learn and put the time into it.

Cons

Proposals keep coming and Lockheed keeps giving into the customer demands with ridiculous deadlines. Therefore, work life balance is challenged. If the company wants to retain talent they need to work with the customer instead of saying yes all the time. Accountability is also a problem when it comes to financial deadlines.

Pros

9/80 schedule offers flexibility and every other Friday off. Management usually has your back. Wide array of benefits such as HSA, college discounts for family members, 401k,

Cons

Constantly outsourcing jobs to subcontractors instead of hiring actual staff. Got rid of pensions and therefore any incentive to stay at the company and not chase the dollar. All these other reviews about no promotions unless you change jobs is 1000% correct. Always shorthanded and an evident refusal to hire enough employees to get the job done on schedule without OT. For non hourly jobs, OT is straight time, not time and a half, and there is a 5 hour gate, so from hours 40.1-45 you earn 0 dollars. Hourly employees get time and a half for anything over 40. Some managers have absolutely zero clue how anything actually gets done and are poor leaders. Low pay - I rejected their first offer and got them to come up about 8k, then within my first year I got a market adjustment raise because it was still too low.

Pros

Flexible schedule, decent pay, quiet office

Cons

The employees this role supports have quite the egos and are disrespectful. One employee mocked the Me Too movement in a staff meeting, and another employee looked me up and down, checking out my body in a very inappropriate way. Work-life balance isn't great, and expectations are unreasonable. They have bad manners and never say thank you
