I doubt you will find a company of this size that has such a well established and effective human resources process. Some of the backbones of the process  are inclusion and ethics.  The compensation was decent but it is being improved as we speak. The work culture is in the middle stages of developing a more modern flow but still has some challenges that could use some champions.  There can be long hours but they are under your control and there are no unrealistic  expectations.  Limited resources can lead to off hours but this is a rarity and comparible to any other company under the same circumstances. Work life balance is valued and schedules can be flexible. Your success is completely up to you. You are assigned a manager to help you plan out your training and career goals.

Great corporation with tremendous pedigree and world-class capability.


The work is challenging, the projects complex and the demand for excellence is abundant.  


Perhaps the biggest challenge/frustration is the simple fact that it is a US based defence corporation and thus advancement is limited by citizenship.  As a non-American one cannot work at any of the sites throughout the United States.  These are State Department rules and non-negotiate.

I had the distinct pleasure to work as a QA Rep. from 1999 to 2004. The staff and Management were a joy to work with, very professional and helpful.
Lots of work/life balance activities, Christmas Party, Golf, special days (gifts on Mothers/Fathers Day, Canada Day etc.)
given an opportunity, I would return in a heart-beat.

I would highlight recommend working here, the only issue is are the pay scales, in order to advance in pay increase, you need to obtain different expriences within the company, but that is not easy when the jobtitle or role covers a wide range of job tiltes or duties.

Payscale is not industry leading as with other competitors.

Incompetence manager, who got job with connections with out manger experience backstabber ,two faces and lying to satisfy her self and other managements. every one  get job by connections not by experience and they are protected, people get job with experiences can loss their job without any notification. 

Good values, clearly articulated. They have excellent training videos about those values and other aspects of working well and ethically.
Provided training when necessary.
Good teamwork. We worked together to achieve the company goals and helped each other.
Every other Friday off (9/80 schedule). It took a while to get used to this, but the extra day off is nice.
Compensation (salary and benefits) are excellent.

Good job security, good place to learn how to be a software engineer with a lifetime of reliable work. Good facility with amenities, and treated like a responsible employee with minimal micromanaging.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Proudly been an employee of LM 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
There is no stress at all.very professional work environment.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Not stressful work environment 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Inspection of engine parts and module of engine aircraft

Great employer, hard to get on because of low turn-over in the support field. Highly recommended, I took this coming from Best Buy and learned a lot about corporate enterprise systems. This was a willing-to-teach opportunity and I would recommend it to anyone.

Lots of interesting projects working with cutting-edge technology.  Advancement a little difficult.  Salaries within market average.  Could have more activities to build corporate culture and have employees get to know each other as they work in disparate sites.
