Pros

Decent Pay, Good place to learn from uniquely talented co-workers, full commitment to diversity

Cons

Forced performance distributions, Rating determined by managers you rarely see, Salary compression, job category salary ranges are market based but actual salary distributions are ~ 89% of mean, Promotion opportunities go to outsiders, 4 is a career level, decreasing benefits ( no pension for newbies, lots of pressure to make up any sick time, 1 choice for health care package, etc), management and workers growing more disconnected...2 very different worlds, local managers neutered by HR and policies. Full Spectrum Leadership is preached....ever constricting management is practiced.

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.
