Thank you for highlighting the great benefits we aim to offer at MITRE including our retirement and education reimbursement programs. We appreciate our employees taking the time to share their experience. Our Education Assistance Program offers financial support to staff pursuing higher education.

Similar to many other companies, MITRE has evolved its flexible work program to ensure employees have opportunities to connect and innovate while also having the flexibility to accommodate their various personal and professional needs. We’re proud to offer a flex-time program that allows staff to flex their 80-hour pay-period time as needed with a minimum of only 50% of their time required in an office setting.

Pros

Mitre changed remarkably within a 3 year period. From remote work to being utterly inflexible. Senior leadership treats employees like an inconvenient infestation. Pay has been relatively stagnant and so has PTO. Promotions are more aboutbpoliticd than work. They preach sponsor impact but even with numerous awards and rewards from the sponsor, unless you play the kiss up game, you will not advance. All workplaces call for politics, but Mitre is the worst I've ever seen.

Cons

Pay, Politics, Flexibility. Organization lost its identity
