Highly professional environment that is constantly looking to push your limits. Great room to grow and advance with the company. Great benefits and work schedule.
What I wish was different
The training and learning process is highly dependent on yourself. This unstructured approach leaves many new students with ambiguity in performance.
Advice
If you're looking to work here it's a great place to grow and learn if your self-motivated. It is highly encouraged that you start your employment with a good first step and explain to your manager that you'll need a little guidance starting out.

Software Engineering Intern
May - August 2019 • Fort Worth, TX
What I liked
They really worked around my schedule. The work I did was meaningful and used by the company.
What I wish was different
Unfortunately, my family took two vacations this summer so I was away from my internship for about 3 weeks. This was over two separate times, so I never got any large projects because I was unable to be there for the entirety of the projects.
Advice
Make friends with your coworkers. Getting along with those around you, whether they’re also college aged or almost retirement age, makes the entire experience a lot more enjoyable.

Program Management Intern

What I liked
They did a great job of integrating me with the team right away and making a contributing member. By the end of the summer I was leading meetings with the customer and presenting to high level Lockheed Martin Execs.

There is a good amount of jargon and technical details that you may not totally understand going in to this internship, but you will pick up on fast.
Advice
The biggest thing i took away was to always be flexible and to (almost) always say yes when asked if you would be able to help someone out. I had some really cool experiences because I agreed to help out people who were not necessarily on my direct team.
