Is MITRE in decline?

Pros

There are plenty of smart people willing to share their knowledge and expertise. A collaborative environment. A great place to learn

Cons

Often MITRE works are at a very high level of abstraction without concern for actually implementation. Manager lack people skills. Bonuses are very arbitrary and rewarded unevenly depending on the manager. People with strong technical skills that can actually build something often leave. CEO is out of touch with employees. His employee all hands meetings are not very motivational and often gets bogged down into minutia and trivial details that managers and directors should be handling. The COVID data he presents is laughably out-of-date.
