Production Operations Manager
"I have worked at Lockheed Martin since 2009. The company has proven to be a solid, ethical, and fair place to work. It does experience significant limitations as a government contractor and large corporation. Limited perks, stuffy atmosphere, and hard to implement creative ideas. A stereotypical large corporation."
