"Lockheed is currently in an employee reduction phase due to a cut in the federal budget. Lockheed is also trying to lower the average employee age by hiring younger workers and laying off older workers."
"I've been with Lockheed Martin for almost six years. While the company is a great one to work for, my boss is a bully who has made my life miserable. That being said, there are a lot of great managers there who treat their employees fairly."
"Over ten years working here. Constant struggle for resources needed to perform acceptably. Co-Workers are dedicated and pleasant. Management constantly displays a yes we can attitude even when they can't."
"I have no complaints. Definitely the career I wanted to be in."
"I've worked for Lockheed Martin for about 8 years (since 2005). In that time I've mostly had managers I liked working with. Unfortunately their seems to be very little room for career growth in the King of Prussia area. The assessment process is beyond useless and career discussions are laughable. If you don't mind being locked in to your role and receiving minimal salary increases then it's not a terrible place."
"I've worked for Lockheed Martin in Atlanta since 2008. The company has a dozen contracts with CDC. Most projects are under staffed and over worked. Customers have too much visibility and management over project operations."
"I've been with LM for around 8 years and like so many places the quality of life is really dependent on location and the current managerial attitude."
"I love working for this company, but I wish they took better care of the people that work for the small outfits. If our jobs do go away, it is up to us to find a transfer or move on. Other, larger sectors within the company you hear of transfers offered."
"No job security. Cut throat good old boys club. Dishonest to their rotten cores. Their lawyers will bury anyone that does their job too well or gets sick."
"They are in crash and burn mode now. Long term prospects are poor given the direction of the defense budget. They are scrambling to find work for the people who remain (after many years of layoffs). If you work here, be prepared at any time to lose your job. The work can be very interesting; managing your career here can be nightmarish. Latest layoffs are past the deadwood; they are now losing good people with decades of experience. And there is no sign of a turnaround in sight. Caveat emptor."
