Lockheed Martin reviews

The pay scale here is lower than other places and it is hard to get what you want or rewarded for your hard work. The managers here are hit and miss. Mostly miss who only care for themselves and leave their employees out to dry and its an old boy's club. I would say about 2/10 managers I have had were really good and would go to bat for you while the rest are only looking to move up for themselves. Examples of bad management would be if you leave their group during evaluation they would give you a 0% raise since you left, and when cutting funding even if you did most of the work, they keep some of those who would stroke their egos and would do anything to appease the manager. The managers here definitely need more management classes to learn to treat people fairly.

Extremely hierarchical - difficult to get anywhere on projects without a manager/director approval, hard to do things as an entry-level Only way to move up is by staying at the company for a very long time Hiring process seems extremely arbitrary and at-times needlessly difficult but at other times far too simplified Pay is not too competitive, lags behind tech salaries
