Pros

If you get into the right Engineering Leadership Development program (the right location) then you’ll get great experience with rotating to different jobs, taking development classes and getting your free Masters.

Cons

My ELDP program had very limited rotations to select from and you could t find one outside of your immediate location. Also, working in a classified environment is no fun! No cell phone, sometimes no internet! Wry restricive. They also take a long time to promote. It seems like they go through staff reductions every few years as well. Management is pretty bad there as well. There are many many layers of useless managers. Here also isn’t a clear track to the higher up positions. Th pay is also not brynorofictive unless you’re experienced coming from the outside into a higher up role. The yearly bonus system is a joke and your salary won’t move very much in th average year. This was from the King of Prussia area so maybe it’s better elsewhere!

Great Career Start

Pros

Lockheed Martin gave me the opportunity to increase my skill set in both the Engineering and Business aspect. I would recommend this as a career start but do not stay long term as you will eventually hit a road block. Just to give a couple of examples, there are still employees that have been around for over fifteen years that have not been able to either get promoted or transition into a lead role. Even the executive levels made it after 25 years of being with the company. In my own experience, I know there are other companies that will treat their employees with more respect. Overall, very much appreciative for Lockheed to give me the opportunity to start my career!

Cons

-Salary is below average. -No bonus unless you are an executive level. -Medical benefits are terrible. -Dirty work areas.
