Pros

Enjoyed my time at MITRE in Bedford and McLean. Work was great, colleagues great. Salary was good as were the benefits. Promotions were difficult to achieve

Cons

Promotions were challenging. Some of the management did not have your back.

Pros

Everyone I meet from Project Leadership down is VERY smart and capable and know things I don't know, which makes the technical work great. Impactful work supporting important missions. Good work life balance. Great parental leave

Cons

C-Suite leadership, namely CEO, destroying morale with bad policies and lack of transparency and honesty. Attrition is rising. MITRE used to be a company that was mostly late-career senior folks, and now seems to be more early-career. Cutting time off benefits for employees with >9 years at the company very clearly indicates they aren't interested in retaining the most experienced staff. It seems salaries and time off don't keep up with other FFRDCs

Pros

MITRE has a lot of opportunities for new graduates to explore different areas within cyber or across government sponsors. This is a great place to start to identify what area of cyber excites you the most.

Cons

I am under the belief that upper management may withhold information regarding the company's financial standing. I would prefer to know when the company is struggling so I can appropriately prepare for potential layoffs.
