Lockheed Martin called me yesterday to inform me that the official offer should be on my doorstep on Monday. It's a bit less than what I was hoping for, but the recruiter took the time to explain to me how they arrived at that number and we had a long talk about all the non-monetary benefits to working at LM. They have a low attrition rate, internal hire rates are high (if, say, I end up not liking this job for whatever reason), good healthcare, reputation for integrity, they've had people take pay cuts to come work with them, etc... She also raved about how the group I'd be going to work with is the nicest bunch of people she's ever recruited for (the recruiter is in California, the team is here in Houston). The recruiter also told me that I should absolutely press L3/Titan to see if they can come up with a counter-offer so that I can make an informed decision... but she thinks I'll go with LM, just the same.
Guess I need to call L3/Titan this morning and tell them that I'm going to have to make a decision by next week.
