Pros

There are many experts in their field who work here, so there are a lot of in-house resources to utilize. There is always something new to learn. Flexible working schedules are great. Good benefits.

Cons

Pay scale is seriously out of sync for a lot of jobs. Management is almost always promoted from the ranks within, so that tends to put people who are very intelligent in their field into a management position that many are not equipped for. Promotions are hard to come by, as well.

MIT Lincoln Laboratory Response

We are pleased that you have seen the level expertise that is at the Lab first hand. The constant learning and flexible work environment is something we are proud of. Salary concerns are usually an individual issue. Careful study of our salary structure does not indicate a trend toward being "out of synch". High retention and offer acceptance rates would appear to indicate salary competitiveness. Individual salary concerns can be addressed via a number of channels, including HR. Ongoing training in management topics continues to be a focus. We are admittedly a somewhat flat organization in structure. That can reduce promotions per se but this is offset by exceptional breadth and depth of opportunity. We appreciate your comments.
