Military Spouses of Lockheed Martin Testimonials

MelissaMelissa, User Experience Designer: “My husband was still on deployment when he received word that we’d be moving to Germany from the U.S.,” she says. “With orders finalized, I felt anxious, but it was time to have the tough conversation with my manager about my future at Lockheed Martin.  That's when I learned my manager’s last assignment in the military was Germany, so I felt relieved knowing he understood the barriers to my situation and could empathize with what I was experiencing.

Stefani

Stefani, Engineer: “My husband puts his life on the line every day, and he happens to fly one of Lockheed’s products, the F-35,” she says. “Lockheed Martin plays a very important role in ensuring he can come home every day and see his family, not only while deployed and in combat zones, but also during training and on home soil as well. The fact that I work here and get to help in this mission area helps me feel like I am also playing a part in keeping him safe and ahead of ready for his missions, day-in and day-out.”

Angel Angel, Human Resources: “With encouragement and advice from my colleagues, I put together a proposal asking to make my role a remote position,” she says. “I didn’t want to give up my career, but I also didn’t want to live apart from my husband. Leaders at Lockheed Martin have empowered me to not only maintain a career as a military spouse, but to truly thrive as one. My leader’s support while I tried to balance my family's needs with my commitment to my job was monumental.”
