Pros

Lockheed will not go out of business any time soon. They work pretty hard to relocate employees when programs go sideways. Incredible resources and infrastructure available.

Cons

Foster adversarial relationships with customers. There are clear motivations to deliver the minimally acceptable product, rather than to achieve greatness in any area. Exceeding explicit requirements is seen as waste. Product inadequacies are blamed on customer for providing "bad requirements". Although incredible resources exist at Lockheed, it is difficult to find people who are versed on the available infrastructure unless you happen to bump into someone that actually used it in the past.

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.
