Pros

Work life balance Positive feedback on work (almost too positive) Lots of good training Gym Nurse Sbux Generally nice people

Cons

It's just a bit dull work content wise. Not balanced in work force (tons of kiddies and oldies, no middle career people) Managers are stressed out because they are also engineers Don't get to play with HW much

Pros

MITRE used to have a great training program for full-time employees but a few years ago the actual allotments of time provided to take classes was greatly reduced. Now if you want training (i.e. software engineering, big data analytics, machine learning, etc.) that requires more than 2 days (and most of those classes do), you have to use your vacation time.

Cons

Be very careful of doing commendable work if you are mid level. People higher up the food chain will steal your work and call it their own. This place is very much a Hobbesian experience.
