Lockheed Martin reviews

Company had guaranteed tasker orders for duration of multi-year contract, but senior management only seemed concerned with fee/profit. Contracts staff generally viewed as the root cause of problems they have no control over and constantly being begrudged. Work massive amount of uncompensated overtime waiting on others (like herding cats), rewriting documents for others and asking USG for schedule relief/forgiveness for stupid programic or cost-control mistakes. Finance seems to drive the boat on everything. Accountants should just focus on counting and get out of the way of the program. I received very good performance appraisals, but finally had to leave due to the constant negativity coming down from Sr Mgt and what the stress was doing to my health.

I would say promotions are tough, but in a competitive environment it will be worthwhile in the long run.
