Really bad envirionment

Pros

Good work/life balance in my group. Pays well (to some people). Will learn a good amount but only if you ask questions. Good training opportunities.

Cons

Completely unmotivated employees, arbitrary bonus payments and end-of year reviews, monthly face-to-face performance meeting with manager are not conducted for months. Do not try to question to management, you will pay for it. It's a sad place.

Pros

Salary is exceptional but they'll make you earn it with little to no work life balance. Executives publicy stating that they do not want to manage their IT any longer and want to outsource their IT divisions.

Cons

If you want to routinely work 80+ hours per week, sometimes 24+ hours straight, 8+ days in a row w/o a day off, with no respect for holidays and weekends then you should find this a good fit.

High turnover

Pros

It's a job. Look at it as a short term job solution unitl the economy improves. With high turnover there will constantly be new opening.

Cons

SInce taken over by FHFA benefits have consistantly moved downward. Poor management.
