Pros

The hours are very flexible. The people are great to work with. The benefits are very good and the pay is competitive for the industry.

Cons

There are limited opportunities for growth because the workforce is shrinking and the job opportunities are not readily available, making it hard to move about and progress. There have been lay-offs every year for the past few years, which have diminished employee moral.

Business Outlook

Pros

Lockheed Martin offered great pay and benefits. They also offered other benefits like helping to pay for college tuition and discounts at certain establishments.

Cons

Lockheed Martin did not have many cons but if I had to pick one it would be job security. Being a contracted employee it was hard to know if we would have a job at anytime because of the government problems.
