Pros

I do enjoy the Work/Life balance here. We also get paid on a weekly basis. All employees get time off around the holidays. We work on 9/80 schedule.

Cons

It's seems like the time needed for a promotion takes a lot longer than necessary. The average compensation package seems lower than national average.

Pros

Very happy at LM SSC so far (2.5 years). Benefits are great: 3 weeks vaca for new hires, every other Friday off, and off between Christmas and New Years. In general, there is a healthy work-life balance attitude. Of course, there are times that we've got to put in extra time to get things done, but that is on an occasional as-needed basis only. In general, I have felt respected and trusted by management, and I've been given a lot of responsibility. Also, working on vehicles destined for deep space exploration is pretty awesome, and a daily inspiration.

Cons

Some remnants of 'good ol boy' club attitudes around here, but LM is actively trying to become a modern, attractive company to new employees. As with every company I've ever heard of, diving into something can be a little overwhelming with limited organized training, but coworkers are generally available for support.

Pros

If you have a viable idea, you may get funding to develop it. If not, there are many other projects to work on. Flexible work schedule.

Cons

It's easy to feel lost or isolated in this enormous corporation. Horrid commute and ridiculous housing cost in SF Bay Area.
