Pros

Very fair pay, wonderful benefits, great retirement savings. You are forced to learn a lot and learn quickly, which is a good thing. Very prestigious company to work for. The name impresses people. High retention rate compared to other corporations.

Cons

Do not expect any work/life balance. Lockheed Martin lays mass amounts of people off then hands their jobs over to the staff left behind, with no concern. I have over four weeks of vacation that I can never use- work load does not allow me to. 50 hours + per week is always the norm at Lockheed Martin. Don't forget to bring your laptop home. "Do more with less and be happy you have a job" is the mantra in this corporation.

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.
