Pros

-Great support structure, typically people would drop what they were doing if you needed help -Progressive employer, LGBT friendly and equal opportunity, culture of acceptance -Very kind, understanding management -Flexible hours

Cons

-Knowledge concentration is a problem. Often there would only be one person who knew how to solve certain problem, if they were unavailable there would be trouble. As far as I could tell there was not much being done to change this. -Software being worked on is old and obscure. Very little documentation is available, and the enormous and out of control codebase can be a nightmare to debug. The supporting software is also older than dirt and agony to use.

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.
