Pros

Definitely a lot of cool projects and flexibility. You can work with some great people, very kind people too.

Cons

Promos are not accurate to what you accomplish in the slightest. I was hired into my role without a Masters. My first manager loved me, as she saw the impact I made. Most people I worked directly with felt that I did a good job. I'd argue I carried many of the teams I worked on. Later, we got a new manager, and he literally told me I should not have gotten my role initially without a Masters, and didn't entertain a promotion into senior. This is despite, again, me repeatedly doing the work of seniors through the years.

Pros

Fun projects and problems. Good flexibility in picking your projects.

Cons

A lot of people think they know their stuff, but that's rarely the case. I used to work in big tech and have a lot of peers who do similar work in much higher quality companies. The difference in how people carry themselves is day and night. The depth of understanding that is sought after at MITRE is very surface level. Not many passionate people here.
