Pros

you get to say you work on some cool projects

Cons

In the past 4 years the senior management has removed countless benefits from employees. It started with removal of the coffee, tea and water "because its not in our budget" even though other remote sites still have this benefit. Immediately after this obscene move they stopped paying any employees for overtime "without VP approval" i.e. nobody gets paid overtime. Tthen they stopped allowing employees to book comp time. Tthen they removed hundreds of hours worth of personal business/sick time. here we are today with mandatory unpaid overtime (working minimum 10 hours for FREE) and our treat at the end will be another massive lay off just like they did to the Structures team last year. Sadly this remote site is being ran into the ground by decisions made from managers that aren't even located in Houston.

Pros

I've worked at LM since 1999. Excellent work-life balance If you are intelligent, you can get your work done and have a lot of free time.

Cons

Biggest complaint it is that when you get to a certain level, merit doesn't get promoted. However, WHO YOU KNOW will. I've watched many reqs be opened only as a formality. Directors and VPs know EXACTLY who they want and usually it is one of their pals. Not challenging. 0 to very slow pace of change. Financial disarray when it comes to running programs.

Pros

Awesome people, good benefits, casual environment. Every other Friday off.

Cons

I was brought on in the middle of a busy season supporting a lab. I was expected to learn everything the first time seeing it, this includes Lockheed internal programs and everything on the job sight.
