Thanks for your review. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your time at MITRE. Unfortunately, we are unable to guarantee that all employees will be able to telecommute because it is dependent on the tasks and security levels of the project that they are assigned. However, most employees at MITRE are able to take advantage this benefit.

Pros

Excellent benefits (up to 5 weeks of paid time off per year, top-notch retirement program), great work/life balance, access to state-of-the-art technologies. Very low attrition and layoffs are a very rare occurrence.

Cons

Although most of the company has an excellent technical environment, it's not the same everywhere. Your experience within the company can vary significantly depending on the division you join. Work at this not-for-profit company is funded exclusively by the US Government. As a result, there are restrictions on how the funds are spent. If you are looking for free lunch every day and beer on Fridays, this is not the place for you.

Pros

Very well known as a place that still values work-life balance. Lots of wonderful people to work with. Great retirement benefits. Work is challenging. Many training opportunities.

Cons

Needs improvement in communication from the top management. Seems as if we are often reacting instead of being strategic. Hard to do your best work without clear picture of where we are going.
