Pros

Lockheed Space has opportunities in nearly every field of engineering which is great for getting a variety experience. The retirement benefits, PTO, and Flex Time policy are among the best in the industry. You will be able to work on some of the most interesting space programs and challenges.

Cons

It’s nearly impossible to get promoted without jumping around though and it is necessary if you want a raise. But, health benefits leave a lot to be desired. It can be frustrating to work here at times due to unrealistic expectations from leadership. Corporate red tape and leadership will always hold back exceptional talent. All diversity initiatives have been canceled, due to recent executive orders which hasn’t helped with what was already a fairly strong monoculture.

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.
