Pros

Great leadership at the top....Stevens is the best. Time will tell if his replacement will be as good. Fair benefits....good 401 k. Pay has been good but getting tougher.

Cons

The defense market pressures to lower overheads and prepare for sequestration are making this a tough environment to work in. Lot of pressure to reduce people, especially high-paid salaries with lower cost employees. Lots of fear and uncertainty at this time within the company. There used to be a time when the motto was "Employer of Choice" and Lockheed valued the older more experienced employees. Not any more...we feel like we are targeted and the sooner we leave the better. Younger less experienced managers are being put in place that think they know it all and are making stupid decisions.

Pros

Very professional corporation with the correct philosophy on Management, product, and personal growth. Many training courses offered to assist you in personal advancement where Lockheed Martin was always very committed. A wide variety of very successful products allowing opportunity if desired to move around for professional opportunities.

Cons

The benefits offered are fairly consistent with other major companies but Medical insurance is too high. Pension benefits were dropped to new employees but the 401K share has been increased.
