Pros

The pay is ok, but not great

Cons

They make in hard to do the job with bureaucracy and overcomplicating processes. The software, tools, and trainings used are outdated. There are too many meetings. It seems to be a company that prioritizes being in the office. Because the company is big, the roles don't have a diverse responsibility. Overall, this company is stuck in the mud.

Pros

I got to work at the Skunkworks as an entry level software engineer for a little over a year and a half. The second project I was on was kind of fun and I got to do some cool stuff. The work was very, very slow, though this could be a con. Life was easy, the people are nice and happy to be there.

Cons

The first year I spent here, I was put on another project since my main project had some issues that delayed it by a whole year. The first project was horrifically mismanaged and genuinely made me question my life choices. My second project was a little funner, but I started feeling like I was stagnating. And that is the biggest gripe I had working here, I wasn't really learning anything. I could have stayed, and kept learning skills that would have not gotten me anywhere outside of defense, but I left for a salary that is actually within market value and for a company that values its software engineers. At LM, it took literally over a year to jump through the IT and financial hoops to get a compiler. That's right. I worked my first year without a compiler. Pretty standard fare, too, it seems. LM values its other engineers like aeros, electricals, and systems, but does not value software at all. Do yourself a favor and work somewhere that will value you and your growth. Or do what I did--work here for a year or so to get your foot in the door and get "experience", so more noteworthy software companies will glance your way.
