Pros

At Lockheed Martin, we work on products that are of national importance. Lockheed Martin is a very large corporation with opportunities to work at various locations in the U.S. and abroad. Lateral moves are easy, vertical moves are much harder. It is a very political business/company, so applicants beware.

Cons

Large defense programs can be slow and it takes a lot of experience before an employee truly adds value to a team or organization. This is extremely frustrating for entry-level employees coming straight from college where performance and recognition are virtually instantaneous. Salary and salary progression are very well matched with other large defense contractors - you probably won't "cheat" the system and get paid outrageous money, but you also won't be left behind with zero percent every year.

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.
