Thread regarding Lockheed Martin Corp. layoffs

There are a lot of things wrong at Lockheed right now

I know everybody is focused on layoffs, but that's far from the only thing wrong at Lockheed Martin right now.

The pay has slipped below industry average and benefits are taking major a hit as well. We are hemorrhaging good young engineers due to this, when we should be doing all we can to keep them.

Promotions are a pipe dream unless you are a pert of the inner circle.

We are working with outdated languages and systems, which can't be good in highly competitive industry we are in.

And all of this is just scratching the surface. The company has gone downhill, and something serious has to be done to get it back on track. There are too many competitors just waiting for us to slip up.

I work at Northrop and I just revived an offer from Lockheed that pays over 25% more than I make now, plus a 10k signing bonus. I am new to this industry (in it about 1 year). If you were me would you stay or go?
