Pros

There is a certain prestige to working for Lockheed Martin that I enjoyed while working there. Ability to apply anywhere in the company internally and you are given preference over outsiders. They paid for my master's degree.

Cons

The benefits went downhill, health insurance had huge deductible, lots of managers and not enough workers and on my contract they were laying off more workers to keep budget for managers that couldn't even tell you what they did daily.
