      Depends on the contract. Overall fairly positive experience.

      Pros

      At Lockheed Martin (at least the contract I was on) you'll get a decent salary, consistant (but small) raises, a security clearance, and a very good work/life balance.

      Cons

      Staying at Lockheed for too long would only make you really valuable to other large defense contractors.

      Pros

      Being a large company there is a great deal of job security. If you are interested in a non-technical career they will help you get there. If you like a corporate atmosphere this is a good environment.

      Cons

      The only way to advance your career is to go into some sort of management (and so everyone is pushed into that against their will). Promotions and compensation are based more on how long you have been in the workplace than your ability. Experience at other companies is valued above experience at Lockheed Martin. The benefits are becoming more and more a burden on the employees. Job duties do not tie into title or salary in any way whatsoever. Bottom line and stockholders are more important than individual employees (although this shouldn't be surprising in a large corporation).

      Pros

      the benefits are pretty good although they are cutting back, tuition reimbursement, working to protect our country, great people to work with

      Cons

      govt is cutting spending on programs, everything takes forever to accomplish, no fast turnaround on anything (except layoffs, I guess!)
