      Unable to Keep Promises

      Pros

      The work at MITRE is generally quite meaningful. We solve hard problems that the government needs help with. It's easy to head home at the end of the day knowing you've made a real contribution. Moreover, the pay and benefits are decent.

      Cons

      Unfortunately, MITRE is not able to keep the promises it makes to its employees. Management will say what it takes to get you to agree to something. But those promises are hollow. If you put faith in these promises, you can end up making decisions detrimental to your career.

      No longer inspiring

      Pros

      Opportunities to directly contribute to customers' missions

      Cons

      Increasing evidence that officers no longer care to engage and understand the substance of staff work. In fact, it appears that the officers, particularly the CEO are spending most of their (his) time to turn the company into a for-profit so that they (he) can cash out.
