Pros

Great opportunities to work on leading edge technology. Lots of openings for specific military skill sets if you are a veteran. Looks good on resume if you want to go work for another defense contractor.

Cons

If you are not in a technical or engineering type of position then pay raises are very slim or non existentent. Job dependent on the contract you are working on. If the contract ends then you are out of a job. Tough to get re-assigned or find a similiar position in another division and no relocation if you are not high enough on the food chain.

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.
