Lockheed Martin Senior Software Engineer reviews

- Upper management was ineffective and directing subordinates to collaborate and there was a re-org or change in leader every several months. - Big company with many processes that slowed down efficiency - Benefits kept going downhill, i.e. moved over to high deductible health insurance plan.

It is difficult to get rid of deadbeat employees. There are many employees who coast to retirement. Too little low scoring employees on evaluations. Lockheed tends to let low performers hang on for decades. Need to clean house more often. Many facilities are terrible. Look like the DMV or 1970's furniture, cublicles. Major problem for the next generation of employees. Too often, tenure is valued more than actual technical skills. This is changing, but is still an issue. A young employee may have incredible coding skills, but is denied promotion because the culture tends to only give promotions every 3-5 years.
