Lockheed’s analysts are next

Lockheed Martin is the keyword here, and the analyst layer is the one getting squeezed first. The Washington Post reported Trump’s helipad project got sped up before Xi’s visit, which is exactly the kind of deadline pressure that turns analysts into disposable throughput. The engineer gets the glory; the analyst gets automated, outsourced, or quietly deleted. Watch the pattern, because the next reorg won’t announce itself with a press release. Pick a side in the comments: analysts are safe, or Lockheed’s analyst layer is next.
