Vantaggi

HQ is in a good location, nice/updated facilities, and good people in the lower-to-mid ranks that really do want to have impact and have their heads on straight.

Svantaggi

It's all about speed now. Forget quality, or creating something fundamental... like a business plan. That just slows progress according to executive leadership. Just "make the thing" and roll it out with lofty/impractical expectations and vision statements masquerading as project goals and milestones. And when those "goals" obviously don't come to fruition, make sure you throw the developers and various support staff under the bus because they can't cut it or "aren't doing their jobs." Surely it isn't/wasn't your absurd leadership that's to blame, because you're the smartest in the room. Always. .......... Please note the sarcasm, because I'm laying it on pretty thick.

Vantaggi

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

Svantaggi

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!!!
