Pros

Incredibly stable paycheck. You can easily get lost in the sea of employees and F off all day and still get your 3% raise at the end of the year.

Cons

Are you a high achiever? Guess what? You're going to get the same 3% raise as the employee wanking off all day. Innovation is crushed. Data is seldom used to make decisions. Meetings of discussing what we should do are constant, meetings that create the action plans are nonexistent. The business is bleeding but everyone is waiting for everyone else to do something. And if you try to do something about it, be prepared to be shut down because "that's not how we do things." This place is a lose-lose if you're a motivated high-performer. Pay raises below inflation. Base pay is below industry average. Promotions won't happen within your position. DEI is a very real (problem) here, which is why I rated "Diversity and Inclusion" 5 stars.

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.
