[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Aerospace is solid, we have a strong pipeline of defense work. Some of our NASA work of course is slowing, but no layoffs AFAIK. I assume many civilian staff will move over to defense, maybe golden dome efforts. [/quote] This is evidence that MITRE and RAND are poorly managed.[/quote]I haven't been a fan of Jason for a couple decades, but MITRE had/has FFRDCs for DoD, but also a FFRDCs for the Civil Federal Govt, HHS/Treasury/VA/... By January, about 40% of MITRE staff-hours were Civil FFRDC-based/related. From inception, those FFRDCs were intended by the Feds to support Federal Enterprise modernizations and staffed as long-term enterprise-level SIs/SETAs rather than research/prototype/development FFRDCs. DOGE/Project 2025 primary impact has been on Civil Agencies and Federal Agency modernization projects, so hardly a surprise that MITRE's been hit really hard.[/quote]
