      Pros

      the paychecks don't bounce and you have 40 guaranteed hours a week. normally a chance for overtime

      Cons

      where does one begin? Micromanagement at all levels and Areas, seems to be a blame the worker culture when things go wrong. the company spends more time on trying to shift blame and sugarcoat things than actual production. they dont listen to those that actually do the work. Currently they've lost more than 60 people in 4 months to local competitors Like Blue Origin and Nortrop Gruman.

      Pros

      A solid career path - this company will give back to you what you put into it. It's not a union shop, so things are a bit smoother and flexible than other places. It's give and take; if the supervisor gives you leniency to take care of a personal errand during work hours, remember that when they ask for volunteers for overtime, etc. The company offers a 401k, outstanding optical and dental, and competitive health coverage rates to the state of SC. Salary - of course we all think we could be paid more, but realistically employees are financially compensated pretty fairly in contrast to surrounding and competing businesses. Promotions and pay raises are routine and regular. I can honestly say that MOST personnel in the shop are paid fairly for their experience. Supervision routinely holds meetings to disseminate pertinent information, provides work feedback when requested, and assists in formulating your career path. Lockheed prides itself on forming professional employees through its training and employment advancement opportunities. You will thrive in the paint shop if you come to work with the right attitude, team mentality, and "Let's go" mindframe.

      Cons

      No workplace is without its flaws, and you have to be sure that what you disagree with is objective and not subjective. The 10-hour work shifts are not for the casual; this isn't a summer job so don't come here expecting that workload attitude. When we're busy, we're busy and we expect a team player mentality. If you can't/won't support the team, your work ethic will be obvious, and we'll make space for someone who will. Be willing to learn, volunteer, jump in and be a part of a project. You cannot be a "fly on the wall" here - you need to be flexible and willing to move around to different tasks to expand your repertoire.
