      Old mentality.

      Pros

      There's various locations around the USA with the possibility to relocate and learn new things. There's a lot of really smart engineers that love their job and it's amazing to learn from their knowledge.

      Cons

      The management is not too great and have an old school mentality. They are not willing to adapt to change or implement new tools or strategies. There are a lot of processes that could use update. Even the facilities in most locations are run down. With the shrinking military government funding you see a lot of reductions in spending by the company and layoffs.

      I enjoyed my time there

      Pros

      It's great when you're first starting. I've gained a ton of experience and I've enjoyed the people I've worked with.

      Cons

      Lockheed's salary isn't competitive once you've become more experienced. Management values leadership contributions more than technical contributions. I found myself in a situation where in order to grow within Lockheed I needed to do less technical work and more managerial work. The technical path at Lockheed is very narrow because at the end of the day, they rather have a lower level engineer perform a task than a high level engineer. It makes sense from a business and cost management perspective, but it's not good if you want to stay technical.

      Pros

      This used to be a great company, it had career paths for the movers and shakers and the leadership had a great deal of integrity.

      Cons

      Recent changes in leadership had created a very high-school like environment, where friends are promoted, and hard work is not rewarded.
