Pros

401-K is a great benefit!

Cons

MITRE does not appreciate tenured engineers and other dedicated staff. Reduced PTO and holidays to make budget they failed to forecast.

Pros

Remove work. That’s about it.

Cons

Poor, flippant, and contradictory messages from leadership. Unwilling to listen to employees. Feedback is censored to avoid hard questions. Very poor decisions in implementing new financial system led to poor forecasting, reducing in cutting benefits and RIF. HR leadership is lacking and there is now a culture of fear and distrust.

Pros

Good work if you can get onto a good project

Cons

Not really the envisioned trusted advisor. More like a consulting company.
