Anyone have any insight on how the salary ranges work at Lockheed Martin?

On new job postings I often see rather large compensation ranges and I'm trying to figure a good rule of thumb as far as how that translates to actual compensation.

For example, say a job posting has a salary range is from 74k - 125k. What would you expect to be initially offered, and how flexible are negotiations within that scale?

Thank in advance!

90% of the time they offer you the midpoint of the range

Yeah I agree with a grad degree I’d say most people are getting around 100

Definitely use justifications and advocate for your desired salary. Worst case they'll say they can't raise it. You can easily raise it above the midpoint

Lockheed is super super variable. I would say expect the lower end and be surprised if it's the higher end. Also a discussion worth having with recruiters etc in the beginning I think

Great question. I think you have to have documented evidence to support why you should fall within a particular range

Depends on Job title

It'll be helpful if you have a document stating that you need to stay within a certain range.

But today I found out that associates with 4yrs experience are making $80k; for hitting the 1950 billable req., the bonus is $1k. I've also found there are big DEI problems that I can't overlook. It feels like the pitch was a big lie. Advice?

Resume gap: My position will be abruptly end in December (was informed this week). However, I won't be interview ready in the next 2 weeks. So how bad does a gap of 1-2 months appear to tech recruiters?

Common knowledge is it is a disadvantage to the candidate from a salary negotiation process. I'm also told hiring decisions at places like AWS & GCP take time and it might be a few months before an offer letter is received.
