Pros

Benefits are great at the company. 100% vesting on day 1 was awesome, they also contribute I think 6% if you put in 6%. Good PTO too. Educational reimbursement was helpful in getting a masters degree.

Cons

Promotion is limited even if you do your job well. Seems like its more based on how long you're at the company rather than performance. Director did not care to engage with us even though we sat a few minutes away.

Pros

I like Lockheed - I find the work meaningful and worthwhile... managers and superiors are very sane - and policies and training reinforce that sanity. I've learned a lot and I can see that more hard-core developers are also hands-on with up-to-date web and server technologies. Benefits (401k, health, etc) are excellent, adding to total compensation.

Cons

Hey, it's a big company - you could land in a job you don't like or that doesn't fit you - you could get a bad manager/superior - that has happened to me occasionally. And with business ups and downs, you could see layoffs - but even those are handled in a civilized manner (IMHO). Hard to call out and *real* cons.

Depends on the team

Pros

Good job security, and most of the people are friendly. It really depends on the team.

Cons

Can be high stress and overwhelming if you have a bad team. Some of management couldn't understand code well.
