CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

IS&GS is the IT services division of Lockheed Martin. It is a conglomeration of many programs. There are locations throughout the Washington DC metropolitan area and also employees work at many different customer locations. The salary is very good and working conditions are good (can vary by location. Some customer sites may not be so good),

Cons

IS&GS is for sale so it will not be part part of Lockheed Martin for long. So everything from salary grids, benefits, and even the culture may change. Medical benefits are mediocre.
