Gone from bad to worse to intolerable

Pros

The people are very dedicated, self motivated and hard working. The amount of personal sacrifice they are willing to put in is extreme.

Cons

There is no viable future for the current company and as a result layoffs are frequent and the mantra 'do more with less' has become a common refrain. There are plenty of other opportunities in the local area which makes it hard to understand why anyone but those vying for a pension would stay with Fannie Mae under such conditions.

Pros

It truly impacts peoples lives by providing support to the US housing finance system. Not sure if 30yr fixed rate mortgage would exist without the company.

Cons

- more like working at government and not a financial services company - compensation upside does not exist
