The Lockheed Martin cut

400 cut in 2025-2026.

Lockheed Martin trimmed several hundred salaried roles across Aeronautics and Space in 2025-26 amid F-35 program pressure and budget reshuffles.

Most affected: engineering, program management, Aeronautics. The package you received was drafted to be signed quickly. The severance multiple, equity treatment, healthcare bridge, release language, and any non-compete riders are all moveable if you know what to push on.

Your 21-day review clock is already running (45 if you're 40 or older in a group layoff). Don't burn it.

Red flag · High impact

Security clearance status

"[clause silent on cleared status and FOCI disclosures]"

What it means: Aerospace and defense exits often complicate active clearances. Without explicit language, your access can be deactivated in a way that affects future cleared employment.

Counter: Confirm in writing the clearance closure type (administrative, not adverse) and request the company will not file SEAD-3 or adverse JPAS entries beyond what is legally required.

Red flag · Hidden clause

Program-specific NDAs survive separation

"All Program-Sensitive Information obligations shall survive in perpetuity..."

What it means: Aerospace programs run on ITAR/EAR controls and program-level NDAs. The release should not extend obligations beyond what the programs themselves require.

Counter: Carve out: "Nothing in this release expands the survival of program-specific NDAs beyond their pre-existing terms."

Yellow flag · Asymmetric

Pension lump sum vs. annuity election

"Employee shall make a final pension election within sixty (60) days..."

What it means: Boeing, Lockheed, and other primes have closed defined-benefit plans with critical election windows. Forcing the election inside the severance window is a trap.

Counter: Extend the pension election window to the plan-document maximum, separate from any severance signing deadline.

Common Lockheed Martin questions

Before you sign anywhere.

How long do I have to sign my Lockheed Martin severance?
Federal law gives you 21 days to review, 45 days if you are 40 or older and the layoff is part of a group separation (which is the case for most Lockheed Martin cuts). After signing, you have 7 days to revoke. Do not let HR pressure you to sign faster than the statute requires.
Is Lockheed Martin severance actually negotiable?
Yes. Severance multiple, equity acceleration, healthcare bridge length, release scope, non-disparagement mutuality, and any non-compete riders are all routinely moved during the review window. The package they sent is the floor, not the ceiling.
What about my unvested Lockheed Martin equity?
Default treatment is forfeiture, but vesting credit through the end of severance period or acceleration of the next 1-2 vests is common, especially for employees with 3+ years tenure. We model what's recoverable and draft the ask.
Will Lockheed Martin find out I had this reviewed?
No. Counteroffer never contacts your employer. The output is for you only. When you negotiate, you send the counter in your own voice using language we drafted. Lockheed Martin sees a thoughtful response, not a third-party report.
My deadline is in 3 days. Can you turn it faster?
Yes. Standard turnaround is 24 hours. If you have a same-day or 48-hour deadline, email hello@trycounteroffer.com after checkout. We can usually turn it in 4 to 6 hours at no extra cost.
Why not just use ChatGPT on my Lockheed Martin agreement?
Plenty of people do. The problem: ChatGPT does not know what a market severance multiple looks like for your role, tenure, and Lockheed Martin's standard package. Our models are trained on real attorney-drafted contracts and indexed against aerospace-sector benchmark data. You're paying for the rubric and benchmarks, not the model.
What if I've already signed my Lockheed Martin severance?
If you are still within the 7-day revocation window (which applies to employees over 40 in group layoffs), you can revoke and renegotiate. Email hello@trycounteroffer.com before purchasing if you've signed and we'll tell you honestly whether a review is still useful.
