Pros

Flexible schedule. Ok insurance benefits, although costs continue to increase as benefits diminish.

Cons

Performance review system recently "improved" is too complex, not well explained, and hence fraught with more excessive inequities than the previous system. Instructions for entering "commitments" are vague, general, bloated with corporate-speak, and effectively meaningless. End result is that any employee not in favor can always be told that (s)he did not meet expectations. Raises and advancement have very little correlation to ability and performance. Employees often are not used in their areas of expertise. The company has become totally oriented to the bottom line with little to no true concern for the well-being of the employees, although much lip-service is given to the contrary. Employees are pushed in never-ending cycles to meet schedule after overlapping schedule, forced by the "bottom line" to push out shoddy software in order to come in at or below increasingly unrealistic budget constraints.

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.
