Lockheed Martin reviews

Sr management politics. They promote for years not merit

Men get paid and promoted more than women. If you are a woman, I recommend looking elsewhere, period. Engineers are valued above all else. Absolutely no work/life balance. Pace is unreal. Not enough people to perform the work and as a result so much turnover. You are expected to work overtime, it's an unsaid rule, but definitely expected that you work at a minimum of 45 hours per week. They claim work/life balance, because they give you the option to work on the weekends ... beware - overtime is part of the culture. Antiquated culture. Much of the workforce is close to retirement and stuck in the way we've always done things, many lacking technological skills/training, still printing tons of paper, and grumpy. Growth opportunities are limited and middle management is not supportive of advancement and mentoring. Skills are not matched and potential not realized for a lot of the employees. Expected to do stretch assignments to get bonuses, but not given time to perform these assignments/ opportunities. So many young people leave for higher paying jobs. Lack of general administrative processes and emphasis on process improvement. They encourage you to speak up for change, but nothing changes.
