Good but not great

Subcontracts manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

All the benefits of working for a big company like training opportunity, lots of locations if you're willing to move, plenty to do if you want to try something new. Very good flexibility (everyone gets a laptop and full flex hour control). Pretty good school reimbursement program given most companies are eliminating this now.

Cons

As with any big company the bureaucracy is insane. Also take into account the customer (military) so in most cases LM ends up mirroring that type of infrastructure.

Lots of opportunity to learn all aspects of the business

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great place for entry and mid level resources. There are flexible work schedules, and the ability to work remotely, the program allows it. Great mentors, and experienced employees that are always willing to provide advise and motivation.

Cons

Work is feast or famine, meaning work can be extremely slow at times, but when the work is there it seems that you have to work around the clock to get is all done.

Pros

Stability within industry Work-life balance 9/80 schedule Opportunities to grow professionally through a plethora of training and related activities

Cons

High stress levels due to inefficient yet REQUIRED processes More "managers" than "leaders" in mid level management positions Antiquated HR promotion system which is based on "years of service" relative to performance Retention issues among junior workforce Easy place to become complacent due to minimal rewards for good behavior and punishments for bad behavior
