        I have been working at Lockheed Martin full-time for more than 3 years

        Pros

        Fair compensation for the level of commitment required. Flexible schedule Engaging and meaningful projects Many opportunities for growth and career advancement. Strong work life balance

        Cons

        Rigid processes make it difficult to drive innovation. Fair salary, but minimal compensation for going exceeding expectations.

        Advice to Management

        Without competitive Silicon Valley compensation, there is little preventing new employees from leaving to achieve a higher salary, then returning at a later time.

        LM has been very flexible and focuses on work life balance. There is opportunity for growth as long as you prove you are willing to put in the work.

        Cons

        Negative Outlook
        Approves of CEO

        I have been working at Lockheed Martin full-time for more than 10 years

        Pros

        I've worked at LM since 1999. Excellent work-life balance If you are intelligent, you can get your work done and have a lot of free time.

        Cons

        Biggest complaint it is that when you get to a certain level, merit doesn't get promoted. However, WHO YOU KNOW will. I've watched many reqs be opened only as a formality. Directors and VPs know EXACTLY who they want and usually it is one of their pals. Not challenging. 0 to very slow pace of change. Financial disarray when it comes to running programs.

        Advice to Management

        Promote people based on merit NOT based on you who you know and can control. This is why you cannot change.

        I worked at Lockheed Martin full-time for more than a year

        Pros

        Some of the best people to work with were at Lockheed martin, the facility was very nice, work / life balance and ample career opportunities to move around. It all depends on who you're working with.

        Cons

        I had some of the worst supervisors and managers I've ever had in my career here. One supervisor was very unprofessional and treated the younger employees like garbage. She went past the line of employee harassment. Some even reported her to our manager. HR and management did not handle the situation very well. The supervisor later was joking about having a one on one with management about the incident in our morning...

        Advice to Management

        One piece of advice for management would be to take complaints seriously even if they are coming from millennials. I don't want to work anywhere that doesn't take younger professionals seriously.
