Business Outlook
Pros
When I first began, there were plenty: rewarding work, great teams, lots to learn and do, and substantial recognition of achievements. Flexible work hours and good benefits rounded out a thought-provoking, engaging, and stable work environment.
Cons
After spending more than half my professional career at MITRE, I left for a better paying and healthy work environment elsewhere. The stress is overwhelming due to a "workforce shaping" restructuring framed as "agility' or “progress” and instead appears to be more about specifically making employees fearful, disenfranchised, and disempowered, especially those in operational roles. Just trying to survive or "roll with the punches" paralyzes some segments of the workforce.
