MITRE reviews

Senior leadership completely disconnected from employees and never honestly communicate about anything. Constant cuts to benefits, strong push for in person work despite some having been teleworkers for 15 years, salaries not keeping up with inflation. Hired too many people too fast and now we don’t have work for them.

If you encounter difficulty doing this then you either get poor assignments or pushed out as there would not be enough assigned work.
