      Good place to start, but don't stay.

      Pros

      Great schedule at some sites, 3 wks vacation plus the week of Christmas is considered paid holiday time, benefits & discounts are great. They pay great for your first 2-3 years, so get the $$$ while you can. Tuition reimbursement is good if you take advantage of it.

      Cons

      Management absolutely sucks! Its a well-known secret that in order to get promoted you have to leave the company & then come back, cause they won't promote you otherwise. You spend a lot of time doing things that make absolutely no sense, because the company has no incentive to do things correctly the first time or to innovate. They talk a good game, but its all smoke&mirrors, don't be fooled.

      Pros

      When I started with Lockheed it was a much better run Engineering related company. It is a great place to work if you are well liked by management and have the necessary education levels they prefer. The benefits are among the industry's best for the old timers (PENSION) but not as appealing for the newer employees.

      Cons

      In some instances it can be an Good Ole Boys club where the ones the kiss butt make out at raise time and job assignments. I am sure it is about the same in most Government supported (welfare) defense contractors.

      Pros

      Flexible schedule, ok pay, mostly good people

      Cons

      Very tough to get promoted, numerous levels of management with questionable value to company, a lot of expenditures that are very wasteful. Lower levels of people can be held back from promotions because of the salaries of higher level people that make the mean salary of their group too high. My manager wanted to give me a promotion, but was not able to because it would put the mean salary of our group above it's target for the year.
