Lockheed Martin Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"I have worked for Lockheed since 2001, with a short break to attend graduate school full time. Overall, I believe the company to be strong and a good place to work. However, over the last several years I've witnessed the morale of employees and the general satisfaction of employees decline. It is very difficult to grow in our career. This is partially a result of sequestration and other government cuts, but also a lack of technical development and stress on being a good technology company. It sounds strange, but it feels like the company puts less and less on good technical development and more and more on scheduling and measuring. Other sites/business areas may not be experiencing the same thing."

"Headquartered in Bethesda, MD, Lockheed Martin is a global security and aerospace company that employs about 116,000 people worldwide and is principally engaged in the research, design, development, manufacture, integration and sustainment of advanced technology systems, products and services."

"Lockheed Martin is a forward technology oriented company. It is a good place to work provided that projects are funded."

"I've worked at Lockheed Martin for 6 years. Overall, they are a very good employer. The only downsides are that they are slow to embrace new technologies and I do not like the way they relocate personnel."

"Lockheed is reorganizing to be cost competitive on rates. That means a constant purge of talent, constant turnover and excessive process control. They are 1.3 billion over budget on JSF and 5 years behind schedule. That puts everyone in a panic mode. Turnover makes continuity and long term planning impossible."

"We are currently going through another set of layoffs. Lockheed Martin doesn't seem to be the safest place to be in the west coast. Used to seem to have great opportunities, but not sure anymore."

"I have worked for LMCO for 4 years and I would recommended this company to anyone who wanted to work hard in a challenging environment. This company celebrates diversity, rewards innovation and uses its diverse workforce to its advantage. The best thing about working for Lockheed though is its commitment to ethics which may surprise some but is true nonetheless."

"Lockheed Martin is an excellent career opportunity, This company truly does celebrate and encourages diversity. Having spoken with several principles in this company I am also very confident to this companies commitment to ethics and ethical behavior. The are very good to their employees and encourage them to achieve greatness for themselves and as employees. In return they only ask for professionalism and maximum effort. I only wish that budgetary climates were better in terms of benefits."

"It is a good place to begin your career. However being a government contractor you are subject to continuous annual budgetary restrictions based on congressional over site."

"The company was very good to me. They treated me very good."
