Pros

Loved my job as a technical instructor for the Army. Decent compensation package, decent pay. outstanding market penatration in defense sector. Works with smaller companies to partner on contract submissions.

Cons

First line manager was outstanding, however those above him were out of touch, disconnected, and seemingly uncaring as to challenges employees face. Human Resources performed poorly supporting employees. law suit phobic..... opened several investigations based upon complaints submitted by disgruntled employees. HR badgered employees to discredit management.

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.
