      okay company

      Engineering intern
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      If you do not want much responsibility you should work here. I just did not like it because I did not like working for the government. I do not really believe in the war so I did not see myself working comfortably on missiles and defense systems.I worked for the HIMARS missile and defense launcher program and it was okay. The people were very nice and polite but again I do not have much to say about what I liked. Unless you do not want to work much for your money, but when I got an offer it was low.

      Cons

      Again I will say I just did not like it because I did not like working for the government. I do not really believe in the war so I did not see myself working comfortably on missiles and defense systems. Low pay but I guess the area of living and cost of living is low. I hated Texas also. Everyone has a typical Texas attitude. I did not like how comfortable people were working on missiles and fire control. It was almost creepy to me that no one thought it was a little intense. Not my type of work place.

      Great Internship experience

      Engineering intern
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The people there are great. They are always willing to help you and they make sure that you understand the tasks that you need to do. Pay is not bad. I am quite happy with the amount they offered me for a full time position given that the Binghamton area has a very low cost of living. Managers are willing to help you and deal with any concerns you may have.

      Cons

      The facility where I worked in Owego, NY is so huge that you get lost all the time. You have to ask around your first few days because you will get lost.

      Solid place to work, but watch out for bureaucracy

      Software engineering intern
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Lockheed Martin has fairly flexible hours. As long as you hit your forty hours a week for a full time employee, the distribution of hours among the days of the week doesn't really matter. They also have fairly competitive rates for interns, with the amount of compensation depending on college coursework completed. Interns get to do real work and learn about the way work is done within the company. If you work at Lockheed Martin as an intern, you will pick up new skills and tools as you go. Plus, being able to say that you work for the largest defense contractor (by revenue) is pretty cool.

      Cons

      Lockheed Martin utilizes outdated technologies and isn't agile and quick to adapt like younger and smaller companies. Since it has a strong connection with the military and the military isn't always good at accepting and handling change, Lockheed Martin stays backwards along with it. Needless to say, for a company of this size and age, bureaucracy plays a large factor and often gets in the way of being productive. The potential for career advancement isn't as great as I would have hoped for. Although programs for bright young employees do exist, the mobility and room to move upwards isn't really there for most.
