Starting out as Systems Engineer at Lockheed Martin in OKC

Hi everyone, I am a recent EE grad who just landed a Entry level Systems Engineer position at Lockheed Martin. They sent me an offer this afternoon with $80k as starting. They never mentioned a salary in the interview but just surfaced the benefits and everything seemed too good to be true. However, this job market has been horrible so I do feel like I should really take this offer.

I wanted to ask with $80k as starting salary for a fresh hire, should I consider taking it or negotiate more? And if I should negotiate, what can I tell them?

I’d appreciate any help! Thank you in advance.

Starting out as a Systems Engineer

Hi everyone, I’m a recent EE graduate and just landed an Entry level Systems Engineer position at Lockheed Martin. They’ve offered me roughly $80k, and I wanted to ask if that’s the best I could get as someone who just got into the field or should I go and negotiate for a little bit more?

I’m very new as to this is a big next step in life. I appreciate any help I can get! Thank you in advance!
