Pros

Great benefits, that begin the day you begin. The organization cares about their employees and when Sequestration forced layoffs, LM insisted on doing the right thing and giving the affected employees a 2 week notice. They provided help through their Career Talent group: on resumes, cover letters and interviewing.

Cons

The ratio of employees to management was high in the area I worked. There was no recognized team leader. With employees in several different buildings or even different areas of the same building, it was difficult to communicate with each other on projects. But this is more attributed to the placement of the employees by the FAA, to whom the LM had a contract.

Pros

Awesome feeling to contribute to the success of our defense community. Some super-smart, caring, sincere people to work with and learn from. Good pay and benefits. Blend in and under the radar and you'll probably have a job.

Cons

Management touts a diverse company culture when in reality with a few affirmative action exceptions, the workforce looks and acts like they're straight out of a cookie cutter batch of white, 26-40 year old male yes men. If you don't play the game and pump up your manager often, you get lost in the crowd. If you have real and valid issues with another employee (especially one of the good ole boys) you are labeled as a troublemaker and targeted for termination.
