Working at Lockheed Martin in Grand Prairie, TX: 11 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Grand Prairie, TX Area

"Interviewed by one group and then found out on the first day that I was working for someone else. Very cut-throat and has no room for advancement. If you disagree with a manager then he will sit in on your meetings bringing another employee gunning for your job and then asking them what they think of how you are leading the meeting when they are not even part of your group. That is seriously how bad it can get."
