      Could be better, could be worse

      Pros

      Excellent opportunities to learn and expand your skillset. Work life balance is unparalleled in the industry. Fantastic opportunities to move around within the company and increase your exposure to skills and fields. Mission of overall corporation is admirable, but can get lost as it filters down to delivered products.

      Cons

      Management does not remember what it was like to be an engineer, and has unreasonable expectations. Interaction with clients depends largely upon their industry, as MITRE bridges most of the major industries. Frequent changes in evaluation metrics lead to confusion on what matters most to management both for delivered product and promotion potential. Promotions seem to be tied to items employees often have little control over.

      Pros

      Challenging work! If you absolutely love software or hard engineering problems, and that's all you want to do - this is the place to be! Engineers run the show. Vast types of work here because of the various client needs. Work life balance and pay is quite good.

      Cons

      Amount of work varies by project/team. Some engagements can last years while others last few months. Not many diverse means of career growth here. Only progression seems to be take on more projects, more research, and let time take its course to advance as an Engineer.
