Pros

There are none other than having a job, if that's what you want to call it.

Cons

Greedy management. Wanting to cut mechanics so multiple site leads can keep their jobs. Absolutely no contribution to employee health care leaving premiums of over $1,400 a month for employees. Allowing "created" jobs from good ole boy system to stay drawing high salaries to continue. No opportunity for advancement, regardless of education or experience. Leads and below are dropping like flies. Continues to force impossible timeline standards by intimidation of layoffs. They cut mechanics, cut timelines, and are wanting to accomplish more work in less time to "save costs" but still have three site supervisors collecting over $100,000 a year and numerous "management" positions with undefined roles collecting over $36 an hour. Good luck getting these people to fix your airplanes. This contract was looked at completely wrong and it's going downhill fast.

Pros

Decent pay, awesome benefits, interesting work environment.

Cons

Starting pay for A&P's is low although, a new hire with very minimal aircraft experience and no A&P, can exceed your starting pay while you achieve Lockheed experience. New employees with minimal experience from other companies, should never pass the pay rate of an employee who has years of Lockheed experience. Especially when the previous experience was only two years, and you have achieved three years Lockheed experience and make less!
