Pros

Decent pay, decent benefits, lots of opportunities people interested in Cybersecurity, IT, and Software. .

Cons

The work policy is not flexible, project work can be volatile and hard to secure internally, the demographic skews older so new employees/college grads may struggle finding peers. MITRE’s National Security sector has a strange relationship with the government where they try to predict what it wants in advance without actually knowing (mainly due to bad communication), causing engineers, IT, cybersecurity, and software people to start and scrap efforts/concepts in a hindering way instead of streamlining the workflow (even when accounting for necessary security procedures and strong usage of agile project management).

Pros

The people are great, benefits are still competitive. Interesting work (if you can find it)

Cons

Corporate leadership needs a complete makeover. Also, we shouldn’t have to look for work to do; we already have a job.

Pros

Great work life balance. Collegial atmosphere. Great retirement program. Great way to support the nation with projects focused upon ways to improve defense and government.

Cons

Continued erosion of benefits package over a long period of time. Many layers of management can create execution decision making challenges for projects.
