Lockheed Martin Reviews

Old tools Funding restrictions to functions outside of engineering

Middle management is terrible, seems to mainly be yes men and women who seem to spend more of their time managing their internal reputation. Will claim there is a no blame culture, but will blame the leads and staff for pretty much everything. Running joke was accountability stops once you become a level 5. Incredibly bureaucratic. I have worked in both the public and private sector and its probably the most administratively heavy organization I've seen. Very basic low level tasks can require approvals and reviews from a huge amount of stakeholders and managers often with multiple forms and systems. Staff care is very low, burnout was common with raises regularly offered when staff gave their resignation either from overwork, stress or just frustration. Issues causing these problems were never addressed.
