just because apparently "everyone" is working from home doesn't necessarily mean they started like that

do you even have any work experience? you'd be shooting yourself in the foot just because you want to "work from home comfy job"

>>56058795
Anon did you hop on the 4 10s shift? Lockheed has the best 401k match I've had too

>>56058795
congrats on the offer to build weapons that protect the hegemony

>>56058795
>Great company that gives good experience and pay
>Wants to fuck it up because he doesn't get to work from home
Stop being a nigger and use your legs. Most people don't work from home. You're just being a diva. Also, thanks for promoting the globohomo agenda. I don't know if you know this, but Lockheed Martin was rated the best workplace that is fag friendly.

>>56058862
my employer, (hint: BIG LOU's old company) gives me 1% towards 401K for free, plus they match 5% of my contributions. so each year I am getting 11% of my salary funneled into my 401K, which is starting to get fat after only a couple of years here doing enterprise software sales. this company is boomer central and I love it.

>>56058795
>Am I doing the right thing?

I think you're doing the right thing. For once in history, working conditions have changed. If we give it up, they will never and I mean NEVER give it back to us. I'm holding out for fellow Anons. Since 2020 been remote, make about 120K living inside a national forest as well. Every morning I can go on a hike, and I still come in and do my programming chores.

I will fight the fed. There will be a day when Jerome's rates force me to go back, but today is not that day.

Lockheed insider here, we're about to give
terran Orbital(Ticker: LLAP) a massive contract. Buy before you get priced out. We'll probably buy them eventually too.

>>56058795
Bad decision
I make 130k base
13k 401k contribution
7k bonus
I'm at 150k total comp with them in a low cost of living state as a level 4 engineer.

>>56058795
I'd take it with a plan to skedaddle in 2 years. At least you're not getting up at 6AM or getting home at midnight for <$20 like me.

>>56058795
Greed will destroy you

>>56058795
take the job. walk in on day #1 with a 50 pound bag of concrete slung over your shoulder. flush it down every toilet in the building then quit.

>>56058795
> muh wfh
Stop being such a fucking neet pussy and take the job. The experience alone will help you far long term. And stop taking life advice from a fucking incel board filled with losers, you fucking moron.

>>56058995
>muh experience
i turned down a manager level role and a raise to $130-140k because it was 4 days a week in the wage cage. sorry mr. shekelstein but you can find a desperate, low performing nigger to run your fortune 50 accounting department. white men work from HOME.

>>56059023
SLAVA Z BASED!

>>56058795
>Going to tell them nevermind on Monday beacuse I want a work from home job...
You are a fucking moron.
Just move as close to the office as humanly possible - bike/walking distance.
Stop being a lazy bitch

>>56058795
also WFH should be earned by or you'll eventually turn into a liability with one foot out the door...
Bert down at accounting as a complete moron, but he's always at work and he brings donuts on fridays
>can't get rid of Bert
What about that WFO engineer
>who?
EXACTLY

You should take the job Anon. Economy is about to shit the bed big time and the safest place to be is either the military industry complex or the fed.

Get in there, build your experience and when the economy starts to bottom out then try to get your comfy WFH job

>t. DoD lab rat

>>56058795
damn you should have went to raytheon or general dynamics, they have hybrid at least

>>56059640
General dynamics has notoriously shit pay

>>56059654
they offer WFH thoughbeit

>>56058795
>get hired as "hybrid"
>show up in office for first month
>stop showing up in office
Congratulations you now have a WFH job

>>56058795
>>56058795
>Going to tell them nevermind on Monday beacuse I want a work from home job...
If this isn't a larp,
OP, This would be a monumental fuck up.

>>56058844
I got plenty, I deserve my wfh
>>56058862
401k is for middl3 class peopl3, I identify as rich...
>>56058866
As long as non whites(Russians aren't white they are mongols) are being killed then God will reward me in the afterlife
>>56058876
I saw no fag flags or non white people at the office so I'm good...
>>56058905
The jewd want U working from home and the seething manual laborers do too...
>>56058914
I'll make that working from home at another job plus I won't have to get a house in rich peo0le ville next to the office...
>>56058923
Fuck getting up before 11:30 am dude.
>>56058930
If I was greedy I would take the job bug I value freedom over money
>>56058995
8 hours of solid sleep a day and not having to huff fumes in traffic >>>>>> career
>>56059023
They act like 140k would even be worth it..
>>56059405
But I'll have to sit in a cubicle when I can just sit on my sunny porch...also it's in an expensive area, I'll be house poor if I do a mortgage..
>>56059430
I'm okay with it being earned but I'll be working with nukes so they can't give me it if they wanted to beacuse everything is top secret..
>>56059574
I'm tired of hearing the colony is taking a shit, I heard it since April when I started job hopping and took a stupid 3 month contract beacuse u goyim scared me into believing anything or anyone can stop the USA gravy train..
>>56059640
Depending onRaytheon. There are people in lockheed that have wfh, this project just involves nukes so its impossible.. Just applied to raytheon...
>>56059654
Ye but they get cool projects and it looks good on the resume
>>56059673
I prefer hybrid over fully remote. I can't do either with this postion

>>56058887
>this company is boomer central and I love it.
40 year old Boomer reporting in.
How do I get a job there?

>>56058795
I got an offer from L3Harris but it's dogshit. I've been trolling them for 2 weeks and finally they put the foot down and said I have to start on Monday. Still don't know if I'm going or not.

>>56059805
>Ye but they get cool projects and it looks good on the resume
>>56059669
>they offer WFH thoughbeit
Yeah but they're low tier in terms of defense contracting and other contractors with better benefits and pay also offer WFH. They're good for a foot in the door but get out after

>>56059805
Well it seems like you have your mind made up Anon

>>56058795
>>56058795
>take job
>do well
>earn WFH status
>???
>profit

>>56059805
Also you should not tell anyone what you would be working on, even remotely. It's not going to help you by talking about that stuff here on 4chan

>>56059882
Not really I have no other offers and I always wanted to work at c9ckheed but I just can't stand having a convorsati9n with someone and they tell me they work from home while I go in every day like a dog. I don't care how much money it is I will never be able to brag about any job were I can't wfh at least hybrid.. so ye I guess I did

>>56058795
I worked at the Owego Facility for a few months, getting the Yankie Wyte security clearance was hard.

wait, i work for these goys and im fully remote swe, what kind of trash management are you going to be working for???

>>56058939
Kek

>>56060045
it really do be like that

>>56060045
If you don't spend 12 hours a day here it isn't as annoying.

You gonna build a SCIF in your house?

Since when can you work as a defense contractor remotely? All the people in my office who were DISA/NSA subcontractors for LMT had to go to the fort everyday.

>>56060242
That's the thing.
You can't.

>>56060242
>>56060213
Guys defense contractors still have admin jobs that are wfh. Boeing in El Segundo is just pulling people back this week

>>56060213
>>56060242
Ye I know... that's why sadly defense work isn't for me.. What's the point of going here if I can't have basic wfh? 100k-200k isn't enough to live an exciting life. There's no point..

>>56060242
Why did they do it when there are so many wfh jobs that pay the same? Why wouldn't anyone do this??

>>56060242
everything i read here is real

>>56060320
U can't even fathom another person getting a lockheed job offer? Is that how low u set the bar for urself?

>>56060292
Blame Snowden. All this data segmentation and isolation got heavily beefed up after he leaked everything.

>>56060292
Defense contractors are filled with literal patriotards who unironically believe in "the mission."
It isn't just a joke they actually think that way.

>>56060350
Fuck that goy, we will lag behind if we don't spy on our citizen while China does
>>56060356
I hate russia, I really hate China, I do belive in the mission but not enough to sacrifice my freedom for it

gross
thank fuck I didn't have to spend my engineering career working for bootlickers

>>56058795
The text contains a discussion thread from a 4chan board where someone is seeking advice about a job offer from Lockheed Martin. The original poster is considering turning down the job because they want a work-from-home (WFH) position, but others in the thread advise against it, emphasizing the value of experience and the potential for future WFH opportunities. Some users mention other defense contractors that offer WFH options, while others express skepticism about the feasibility of remote work in the defense industry. Overall, the consensus is that taking the job and gaining experience is important, even if it means initially working in an office setting.

>>56059847
yeah im at GD in Connecticut and plan on leaving after a year because the income tax is too fucking high, Lockheed loves hiring us

>>56060242
literally no different than a regular job except company laptop, everyone here is just a retarded NEET

>>56058795

Because if you were at the cape you wouldn't be making this post.
take the job you stupid faggot

>>56058908

>>56059574
This, if we face deflation you want job security. Not anywhere near OPs line of work but finding a job is a pain in the ass right now

Let me post what he deleted.

>>56058795
Unless the pay is exponentially more than your wfh job, I'm talking enough to retire off of once your contract with lockheed ends, I'd stick with the wfh job.

>>56058795
A recession is looming and you consider turning down a recession proof position bc no wfh? Do you have a better wfh job lined up? How old are you? How much experience? There are not many reasons to turn this down. Certainly not no wfh unless you have children and a working wife. I would understand moral issues but no wfh seems peak decadence. Long story short, acceptable reasons to turn this down: family, morals, health, it’s not your main gig and you need time to work on your true calling. Everything else seems decadent

>>56059810
It's going to be pretty hard due to the hiring freeze. You'll have to wait until the next culling makes room.

Honestly I have no idea how I got in here. A couple years ago, I had hired a VA to apply to jobs for me and this was application #294.

Just try the VA + Google Sheets Workbook approach and apply to everything en masse.

>>56063418
I've always heard that defense contacting isn't recession proof. The work is project or contract based and if Congress cuts funding then your job is gone.

>>56058795
Based, bro, don’t work for them.

>>56058795
Get off the couch you lazy GenZ diva. The rush of power you'll get from making killing machines generations ahead of anything our enemies can field is worth the minor inconvenience of actually going to work.

NTA and for all I know he's larping but do some research on the Space Development Agency and their Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture. SDA is launching hundreds of satellites in separate "tranches" for comms and missile tracking. Every big boy satellite manufacturer is getting a piece of the action and I assume Terran Orbital is too

do the math. im happy to go into an office but i'd need to have it be worth my while. Figure at an average commute that ends up meaning a 150k wfh job needs to pay more like 190 if its in person just to make the same amount per hour, assuming workloads are equal.

So the F-22 is a fucking prehistoric killing machine like a Utah Raptor or a goddamn harpy eagle slicing and dicing people's intestines apparatus? What a dumbest drawing. How do you feel about a Gripen or a Rafale? You do know tech/drones/ai are the next thing? The dog fighting age is over.

>>56063892
Usually govs increase spending in a recession. What you mean is it is depending on gov spending. But it’s not correlated to the economic cycle. Anyways yes on the US it’s not a 100% save job, none is, but it’s recession save and military spending is unlikely to go down by much over the next few years.

>>56064313
The F35 is simply garbage. It's the worst aircraft project in history. It's almost like the entire point of the project is to waste money and ultimately make the US military weaker in the sky.

This is really the way, but it's also the trickiest to crack. You kinda have to know guys to get a spot at one of these companies, but it's an amazing way to start one's career.
