Pros

- Great work life balance - There are areas of cutting edge technologies - Relatively easy to move to other geographic regions - Relatively easy to move to another program (most people stay in a role for at least a year before changing positions) - Great benefits - In the past, great opportunity for growth, but this has been harder as the Government reduces spending - The company is pushing hard to branch into International markets - There are a wide range of opportunities and roles. Most people could find something that lines up with their strengths and career goals - Generally, there is a strong focus on the employees and the company does care. - Overall, I would highly recommend the company but one's experience can vary greatly depending on the project and management team.

Cons

- This may not be a fair generalization across the corporation, but I feel it has lost touch with its core - strong engineering and development. I do not see the younger, 1-5 years of experience, talent being pushed technically as much as I would like. I feel the company should put more emphasis on rewarding and keeping good technical talent.

Pros

High level of integrity throughout the company, open communications, and sincere interest in doing the right thing.

Cons

Unfortunately, I need to come up with twenty words of cons. When in reality after 41+ years in IT, I have no cons for Lockheed Martin. They are not perfect, but highly acceptable.
