Pros

Everyone I meet from Project Leadership down is VERY smart and capable and know things I don't know, which makes the technical work great. Impactful work supporting important missions. Good work life balance. Great parental leave

Cons

C-Suite leadership, namely CEO, destroying morale with bad policies and lack of transparency and honesty. Attrition is rising. MITRE used to be a company that was mostly late-career senior folks, and now seems to be more early-career. Cutting time off benefits for employees with >9 years at the company very clearly indicates they aren't interested in retaining the most experienced staff. It seems salaries and time off don't keep up with other FFRDCs
