My work environment is positive because I work at a client site, far from the MITRE HQ work environment. People avoid working there for a reason.
For the most part positive
Personal needs are addressed very well
People across the company will help other employees on slack with random questions. People also speak honestly about concerns with ELT and benefits.
People really try to help out each other and share knowledge. You can reach out to a complete stranger with a question and they're happy to help!
Coffee shops are available and used

The environment is very supportive, very mission oriented
Working some of the most challenging technical issues for Government and military applications; all in the public interest and as a trusted member of government organizations.
Review from Engineering Dept
Everyone is focused on solving hard problems to help our sponsors and change the world. The mission is bigger than any one person and gives a sense of purpose and drive to the work.
Review from Engineering Dept
In my experience people at MITRE have generally been wonderfully inclusive and collaborative. A few pockets of bro culture and intelligent yet condescending individuals but most people are great.
Review from Engineering Dept
Staff is open to helping each other.
The company hands out awards like candy. Nearly everyone gets an award at some time.
The culture of MITRE is academic and laid back. The benefits really make it.
It is easy to move between projects and teams and learn new technologies.
People are low in education and technical accomplishment.
There is an environment geared towards learning
They could try taking any positive action towards organizing their workforce. It seems like all they know how to do is issue top-down decrees to control employee behavior.
Review from Engineering Dept
There needs to be clear communication from leadership and more of an emphasis on defining and executing projects
Provide more recognition for employees who have worked at the company longer.
Review from Engineering Dept
Clean house -- especially across the NSEC -- overhaul everything from the VPs down and STOP hiring execs because they "look the part." There are dozens of empty suites in the 6/7 and above levels that haven't produced anything but paperwork for decades.
Review from Engineering Dept
Much more downward focus an understanding of employee needs; thus improving the work environment.
Very negative and toxic work environment
They need to figure out what their business is.
Review from Engineering Dept
more Senior Leadership interaction with sponsors

We need a clear vision and direction and the churning and restructuring need to stop.
