Challenging Technical Assignments

Pros

Challenging and rewarding technical work for engineers in an atmosphere of cutting edge technology. Assignments are especially rewarding for systems engineers.

Cons

Management in some locations works in cliques and doesn't have the best interest of the company in mind. This leads to managment not listening to good contructive (emphasis) ideas that would benefit the company.

Pros

LM is a huge company that provides you with many avenues that you can pursue over your career. It also can provide you with travel, and meaningful skills that can be transfered to other jobs.

Cons

Some aspects still seem pretty political or alternate motive. Some management have large egos and feel the need to try and flew their "muscle".

Pros

Lockheed provides a great learning environment and ability to take on an increasing level of responsibility. Promotions came slowly at the site I worked at since it was unionized but management was very cognizant of your performance level and did the best they could to promote you.

Cons

I worked at one of the very few sites where the engineering staff was unionized. This really shackled management's hands in a number of ways. Promotions and bonuses are all driven by letters of understand and approved by the union. The union has the interests of the poor to mediocre employees at heart. Don't work at a unionized site if you are looking to be rewarded for all-star efforts.
