Pros

Many locations to choose from and many jobs available. Salary and benefits are reasonable, but usually on the low side of the industry average.

Cons

Most jobs are concentrated in the DC/Maryland/Virginia area. (I suppose that's not bad if you like that area...) As a large government contractor, bureaucracy is rife and terrible. Raises (beyond the laughable "merit increase") are rare, and promotions even more so. Job security often tied to a contract. Training funds seem to be a myth. Expect to pay for any training out of your own pocket.

Pros

High level of integrity throughout the company, open communications, and sincere interest in doing the right thing.

Cons

Unfortunately, I need to come up with twenty words of cons. When in reality after 41+ years in IT, I have no cons for Lockheed Martin. They are not perfect, but highly acceptable.
