Pluspunten

There are still really smart and capable people around. The culture is very friendly and relaxed, but you are still able to intellectually challenge yourself if you want. There is also a new executive leadership team which has been making reasonable choices so far for the hand they've been dealt. The work can be meaningful if you maneuver your way to good projects, and they have a good internal R&D program for research-oriented employees.

Minpunten

The company under the old executive leadership team made bad choices, leading to its current state of deteriorating culture and financial health. Currently the company is a like a very rocky ship, and no one really knows if MITRE can weather the storm. Even before the storm, MITRE struggled with keeping up with state-of-the-art technology and business practices. The experience varies greatly with the team and department you're assigned. There is a massive amount of heterogeneity in the company, making it difficult to really state how good or bad or valuable or worthless your work can be.

Pluspunten

Great diversity, quality of life and staff. Been with MITRE over 20 years.

Minpunten

Too many VP,s that are not held accountable. Company recently RIF'd 24 staff from FAA FFRDC, due to dropping gov't funding...yet company has significant number of VPs all sucking off of overhead. No attempt to manage money within the "leadership" ranks. Last year company went through a major business transformation...that failed...yet, VPs held staff accountable for reporting on a subpar system that lasted over 12 months. Could not even get business data to report to gov't for over 2 months, yet, person who was in charge of the business transformation is still at MITRE. If this happened to any other MITRE employee, they would've been gone. Oddly enough the person in charge of the business transformation is the CEOs brother. Amazing how that happens. He'll probably get a bonus because of his substandard performance. MITRE recently invested in opening up an office in Australia. All on company overhead. significant large numbers of VPs travelling out to "visit"...yet company has the audacity to reduce benefits as part of cost cutting measures. Company has now taken on a "for profit" mentality. It's all about delivery... so VPS and GMs can spend, spend, spend. Board of Directors should take a good look at what is happening and make some swift changes from the CEO on down. BOD should also implement an independent IG like entity to investigate what is seeming like waste, fraud and abuse by CEO, GMs and VPs. Time for the Fat Cats to get purged!!!
