Pros

Flexible work schedule, easy-going people, and important work. Lockheed Martin is a monster-sized organization. Your experience in one organization can be vastly different compared to one across the hall. As such, you must think of Lockheed as multiple smaller companies rather than one large organization.

Cons

A lot of bureaucracy. Since its a defense company they, don't really prioritize skillsets instead of a breathing body. Meaning you'll have a few excellent developers and the rest are just in the way people so they can bill the government a ludicrous amount. This has been my experience with 3 different teams so far., you'll probably come to learn the same.
