Pros

The Palmdale site is on a 9:80 schedule in that you get every other Friday off (can't choose which Friday), really awesome. The relocation package is pretty good. The work is incredible. For the vast majority of employees, can't access email when you aren't there, which is usually a huge plus. Get to work with hardworking, intelligent people (my experience so far).

Cons

Not the highest in terms of salaries, especially for PhDs. I would say slightly higher than average, but close to average. Massive corporate machine you have to navigate to get stuff done (e.g., things ordered, various trainings, etc.). No cafeteria or coffee stand on site.

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.
