      10+ years at MITRE

      Principal information systems engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - MITRE Internal Research and Development Program (MIP) - Decent benefits but used to be a lot better (time off and PTO) - Ability to grow and create your own opportunities, if in the right group - Broad gov't customer base (growing in Healthcare; multi-agency) - Smart and highly educated people - Trusted and respected advisors to the gov't (in a fair number of cases) - Opportunities to make significant difference for this nation

      Cons

      - Pay can be low for junior staff in certain technical fields (i.e. Computer Science) and no mechanism to correct over time; has caused significant turnover in junior staff - No real technical growth path, rising requires taking on management responsibility - Top heavy on management that have almost no technical focus - Most management lack appreciation and knowledge of real technical contributions - Working hard does not necessarily equal more reward

      Pros

      Smart people who care about what they do for their govt sponsors and the American public.

      Cons

      Can be bureaucratic, but it's a large organization. Needs to be more agile.
