Pros

The mission is important. to many that come to work a Fannie Mae. The company has good benefits. Depending on the department, there is usually good team work among peers.

Cons

Senior management has been out out of touch with the company's main reason for being-mission/ prudent affordable lending. Company managed and run by a few who have held on for many years--all multi-millionaires. Promotional opportunities are based on who you know and not what you know.

Pros

Great team and luckily for me great leadership in my direct line up to my SVP.

Cons

It’s horrifying how things have changed since Pulte took over. Layoffs, elimination of entire job categories but not the responsibilities of those jobs. It’s not just you work more because a teammate is gone, it’s do a completely different job while still doing you job plus all of your layed off coworkers job.
