MITRE reviews

The current CEO has ruined the company. CFO decisions have created cash flow problems. Company has wasted millions in the process of a “Business Transformation” that has either failed or created more manual processes. Staff either laid off or leaving willingly while the rest of us are told to do more with less. Read between the lines work more hours because you’re not getting help. Too many layers of management.

It does not appear from the evidence that the Directors/SVPs and Board have ever run an actual business that had to sell a product. Company resembles a fighter plane throwing chaff, lest the adversaries get a clean shot. Difficult to fix a company with this much dysfunction by quadrupling the executive staff while contract revenue is static at best. That creates chaos, gossip, and jockeying for position from the executive staff on down. Bloating the number of execs is a time-honored tactic for companies on the way down: CEO brings on cronies to serve as tight ends, or upon whom to deflect blame. They're paid well enough that it is immaterial, comes with the territory. Mission focus is lost. Since one of the Board jobs is to bring in business, they don't seem to be doing too well at that, either.
