Pros
Pay is excellent (although the common wisdom is that the pay is higher at for-profit entities in the community like Meta and Amazon). Benefits reasonable for the region.
Cons
MITRE has been in a period of transition and uncertainty since before the pandemic. Cost-saving measures have lowered morale. Federal sponsors are not as supportive and enthusiastic as they were historically. Very few opportunities to pursue high-level executive positions for non-engineers such as legal, policy, and business process specialists. Diversity and Inclusion efforts are largely perfunctory and designed to maintain the status quo, but I find this to be true about most corporate employers.
