ABOUT THIS COMPANY:
The best defenseLockheed Martin is a global security company focused on domestic and foreign defense and civil markets, with the U.S. Department of Defense and other federal government agencies accounting for the majority of its business.

Tips from the inside
Serious work, casual cultureDespite the serious nature of the business it’s involved in, Lockheed Martin staffers report a culture that ranges all the way from "semi-casual to casual." Others cite a "joking, fun atmosphere, even though we’re dealing with mission-critical projects." Further evidence of the firm's relaxed approach can be found in its dress code, summarized by one employee as follows: "There is no dress code." Not so in all locations, however, as a consultant in another office points out that "the dress is still pretty casual, although jeans are no longer allowed." And regardless of where you are, "when meeting with clients you would need to dress up."
