Vantaggi

Meaningful work, GREAT colleagues, visibility into many programs, access across the government. A lot of opportunity to pursue your interests and build the career you want.

Svantaggi

The reviews here sum it up. So many employees don't come to Glassdoor to air their grievances if things are going well. MITRE was once a great company, and the current leadership is slowly degrading everything that MITRE built its brand and reputation on in the past. It could get better if leadership turns over, but I don't see improvements in sight when the leadership points their fingers at the employees as the problem. So many of our best people are leaving, and it already has impacted our customer work. Morale is at an all time low, and each time another good person leaves it is another shot to the heart.

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!!!
