Pros

Lockheed Martin is an industry leader who values their employees ideas and innovation.

Cons

In Oklahoma City, there isn't a large representation of Lockheed employees so it is harder to get a job and also promotions in this area. If you are willing to relocate it makes it easier.

Pros

Excellent pay and benefits Competent workforce A chance to work on projects that will ultimately benefit U.S. service men and women

Cons

Bloated middle management Insanely stupid evaluation process- LM commits- majority of evaluation is graded by someone who knows little about what you do. Its really just a creative writing exercise. Too reliant on US Government contracts in a period of sequestration. Very political workplace- when times get tough you'd better have the right friends.

Pros

As a software engineer, I rarely worked more than 40 hours per week. (can't say the same for all engineers, however; the test engineers often worked swing shifts and extra hours). The slower pace gave me the time to develop as a software engineer, while at work and outside of work.

Cons

Using software technologies that were 10-15 years old. Inconsistent capabilities between engineers. Some aren't very good. Feels really bureaucratic. Lots of annoyances that come with being in a high security environment: my building had no windows (not necessarily the case everywhere, though), no cell phones, firewall prevented access to e-mail sites like gmail and streaming sites like pandora.
