Lockheed Martin Corporation

I worked with Lockheed Martin for seventeen years. I performed numerous functions over the years. I separated from the company to help my family out in CT. I am now ready to re-enter the work force, and relocate back in Virginia.

I worked for nearly 8 years with Lockheed supporting various functions in IT. No where else can those early in their career be given the freedom to gets hands on with some very new cutting-edge equipment. When supporting DOD operations, you certainly have some nice technology to work with. The downside is they like to offer you a million OPPORTUNTIES every chance they get. In my case they recorded all my time I worked, but I was salary, so any OT was only for their billing purpose. At some point I got my last promotion while I was with them and I was gently told by my manager that this Salary raise, and Title promotion would be the last one he could foresee me getting for the rest of my career. This is company that if you show you can manage more, maybe for a short time, then they will expect you to continue supporting more. When I left Lockheed reached out to one of the platform vendors I supported and asked for help filling my role. The vendor said it would take 4 employees.

I got rejected by HR. Cause I I can’t work Whoi is supervisor push you work to get his point from managers .you not comfortable to work and they are look like babysick every job to have duration time to work. I’m never late or past due time.all the time I must done early and I got time left I go help some one new or don’t know.

I have worked for LM for over 20 years, on many different programs and customers. When needed I travel to the customers site for testing, repairs training customer. I have mentored new hires in testing, documentation and customer interfacing. LM goes the extra mile to deliver the desired product to the customer. Great place to work.

Working in the foothill’s,beautiful scenery, 50+ elk herd. Drive to and from work wasn’t too bad like being out by Chatfield reservoir

The Lockheed Martin Corp is a good place to work provided you are working in a good section of the divisions.

Worked at the Sikorsky division for 39 years, last 25+ as FAA DO-178B/C Unit Member/DER. Got to work on multiple aircraft platforms and working with and visiting numerous top-notch aerospace companies around the world.

Lockheed Martin phoned me while working for US Mapping Agency and offer me a job and I accepted that very day in 15 minute conversation. My previous work in IT and Business industry in DoD contracts was excellent and they recognized my worth per written documents (resumes, references, degree, etc.). I proved my work ethics and innovation with a "can do" attitude. Worked in WDC area for Satellite Ops and trasfer to Fort Worth, TX working with Aerospace production. Traveled and learned then excelled in devoted and long hours. Would love to work for them again.

Lockheed Martin was an amazing company to work for during my year there. It was a great opportunity to work on some cool Technical projects as it relates to recruiting.

The company does not stand behind its employees especially when it comes to suppliers issues at least when it comes to sole source suppliers

worked 23 years. I supported many NASA programs, mainly the Space Shuttle. I was a key member of a very highly knowledgeable and professional team of engineers.

Working environment and interaction with all level of employees was challenging but rewarding, Benchmarking with other companies on their FOD prevention program helped streamline processes.

Outstanding job, great people to work with, the new grads and interns were all one 4.0, or clost to it, after another so it was easy sourcing and a pleasure to work with such outstanding young people.

LM is a great company to work for one the best I have experienced. In most cases they are very supportive beginning with Human Resource to PM.

Only constitutional citizens who believe and are willing to fight for the freedoms that America stands for should apply.

Had 11 good year with this company. Very good team morale. Conveniently receive assistance for on job or personal

I’ve been working at LM for 8 years and have received 3 promotions. Networking is a huge part of daily operations and benefits your personal, business and career goals.

Great company, plenty of opportunity for professional development. Also, because of their diverse business portfolio, there was always room to learn a new vertical.

You don't want the story. You won't believe it for one and won't do anything to fix what I tell you. Lockheed saw me as some sort of threat to the way they wanted to do business and they screwed with me at a personal level until they could get rid of me.

I delivered the most complex solution of my IT career without free use of the computer system hosting the solution. The solution integrated 7 computer languages, and I had no prior experience with three of them. The solution ran the second time we ran the model data set through it.

I am aware of their exact plan and will not join the group in the first place. They overhired people to share part-time instead of full-time what they said during the interviewing. After finishing the contract, they did not help me to get a full-time job with Lockheed. They did not view my skills but looked at me as a handicapped.

One of the best jobs I ever had! First job after Military career, smooth transition to civilian sector!

Everyone is a engineer, might take some learning to adjust,,lots of braincells. Its either heads down seriously cranking or, look busy and beg for charge numbers.

The job I had was to keep the plant running and the airplanes flying. It included everything from light bulb changeing to troubleshooting and reparing the entire realm of Machines. Ounce I knew what I was doing, it was a real hoot. To watch a machine start and run after your work on it is very pleasing. As time went on, my knowledge grew immensely. But, when a machine broke down because of the same problem, I had to find out why. That was fun. I also spent a few years working in Electronics. In about every building that contained Electronics. Everything from Radar to Radio and power supplies.

You ‘ve heard it many times. Typical corporate lingo. Nothing or very little positive. Mostly negative.

I found LM Grand Prairie had an arrogant aristocratic management. They don't care what you think; their model, like most Texas firms is like the Army - you are expected to follow orders and don't speak up. It was also one of the worst operations in the industry for age discrimination; older employees are not provided with the same opportunities as younger employees, but are constantly put down and insulted to drive them out.

Worked for Lockheed Martin as an Independent Contractor. Felt like part of the Team. Treated just like an employee.

I really enjoyed my job working at Lockheed Martin ! Had i been more settled in life when i was an employee, I believe I would still be at Lockheed ! If you have a chance to go to work for this company .... TAKE IT !

I was an intern and I just remember it being a pretty easy job that paid super well. It's possible that if I had stayed and actually gotten a "real job" there it'd not be so easy, but I do remember they seemed to have piles of money laying around to fly people around, relocate them, buy equipment, etc. You probably won't be working from home or be able to easily leave and re-enter the building a ton due to the fact that it's so locked down and secure. I did have to dress up, couldn't just wear a t shirt and jeans. If I could work there again I would, it's kind of like high school, you just show up and do what they tell you and you'll get handsomely rewarded. I'd rather have nice pay and a stable job than work at a "cool" company where you don't make much money and you're super stressed but you're wearing a hoodie so you appear to be enjoying yourself.

A day in a life of HRBP opportunity to learn no guarantees Pros of working at this company Cons of working at this company

Lockheed Martin is a very good company which values ethics and its employees. Many opportunities for advancement.

Spent many hours toward the company’s mission. Felt like I made a difference in the world. Glad that I was part of their team.

I worked in the stockroom and I never seen anything like it, parts were on a roller wheel not in boxes. Transactions so easy and the hours are awesome. People and a great, cafe with t.v to watch during lunch and clean, you have lockers for personal items, and clean bathrooms. Also a 4 day week, and overtime. I was there as a temp but so want to go back. I keep applying for jobs and will keep applying.
