Pros

Great benefits including Health Benefits, Flex Schedule (depending on manager), Woman CEO, stock performance.

Cons

May no longer be a good place for long term employment. The company now favors hiring lower level personnel and giving them higher level responsibilities in order to save money for stockholders. They have eliminated the pension plan. Within certain departments, it's still a boy's club.

Pros

*We still get some pay for some overtime (for now), but they keep cutting that back every 6 months to 1 year *You get to live in Colorado

Cons

*Benefits (starting in 2018) are almost comparable to buying insurance individually. Until you spend $6k per person per year, it is like having NO INSURANCE AT ALL. Management is trying to spin this as a positive thing which is insulting to our intelligence *No educational opportunities *Demoralized workforce: our best and brightest are leaving in droves and once they are all gone, this is the beginning of the end *Raises are almost nonexistent *No more work/life balance - They've gotten rid of personal time, which allowed some flexibility. I could take off a few hours this week and make up for it next week or the week after. *Raises are based on what your objectives are, which are the same for everyone and written by someone who doesn't understand your role and that you can have zero effect on what they've laid out to evaluate you Ultimately, the US and tax payers suffer from Lockheed's continuous corner cutting. Their motto "we never forget who we're working for" seems to have been forgotten in order to increase their bottom line in the near term while jeopardizing it long term
