Pros

Exceptional colleagues: The technical talent and dedication of the people here is truly impressive. I work alongside some of the brightest minds in aerospace and defense Meaningful work: Contributing to national security and cutting-edge technology provides genuine purpose Job security: Stable employment Learning opportunities: Exposure to complex, challenging projects across multiple domains

Cons

Leadership has lost sight of core values: Upper management increasingly prioritizes quarterly earnings over the workforce that built this company’s reputation People strategy neglected: What used to be a company that genuinely cared about employee development and retention now feels like decisions are made purely through a financial lens Talent exodus: Watching good people leave because they don’t feel valued anymore Short-term thinking: Focus on stock performance is undermining long-term innovation and employee investment Communication gap: Leadership feels increasingly disconnected from the day-to-day reality of the workforce

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.
