Pros

Nice EA Package. Solid benefits package. Good work - life balance. Nice body shop for Engineers.

Cons

Increasingly PC. Bureaucratic culture. Not meritorious. Core competencies not fostered and developed. Senior level management does not provide strategic leaderships, just stirs the pot. The MITRE Way has added another layer of bureaucracy with no apparent benefits to the company.

Pros

Leadership is very open to hear to ideas and concepts. Leadership is transparent and has a very good communication process. The company values open communication and education advancement. Lots of opportunity to expand job skills and diverse task opportunities.

Cons

Not a Con: MITRE is an FFRDC. The employees are able to be "honest" brokers to their customers without the concern of loseing profits.
