Pros

LM is a large company, my experience has been: relaxed environment, management is easy going, decent work life balance until project heats up which is normal. Good tuition reimbursement. Easy place to hang your hat for a while if you aren't concerned about promotion time or pay.

Cons

401k matching is 4% High Deductible Health Insurance Non-Competitive Pay High Turnover Management is okay with seeing people leave Beancounters and Non Technical People in Technical Management Positions Big Push to keep engineers within LM however their pay is sub par Deadwood Promoting based on time and not knowledge

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.
