Business Outlook

Pros

At Lockheed Martin (at least the contract I was on) you'll get a decent salary, consistant (but small) raises, a security clearance, and a very good work/life balance.

Cons

Staying at Lockheed for too long would only make you really valuable to other large defense contractors.
