Too large a company

Pros

The work was reliable, even during the economic downturn. Lockheed employees get some excellent employee discounts from companies. They paid for security clearance for me, which is often difficult to get an employer to spring for.

Cons

The group I was with had no connections to the rest of the company, and appeared to have been forgotten. The portions of the company responsible for making promises to the government didn't seem to have any communication with the portions responsible for fulfilling those promises. The company provides every kind of service and product to the government, so they don't specialize or excel in anything.

Pros

Extremely interesting projects and programs; great to serve the American people through technological projects.

Cons

Compensation is not that great; as a contractor you often will be between a salaried and a rate employee with the worst of both worlds, poor benefits for the high class of work performed. you need to love the work and like the folks you work with, then it is great.

Pros

Lockheed Martin offers the total package - pay, benefits, work/life balance, and job satisfaction. There are many places to move and various job opportunities.

Cons

If you start at Lockheed Martin right out of college, you will constantly be on the lower end of the pay scale compared to your peers.
