      Fannie Mae was once a great place to work, but no longer.

      May be good for some who are into extreme processes or over engineering solutions.

      Pros

      Benefits are quite good and there's a program to help first-time home buyers purchase their first home. Hours could be decent depending on which group you work for.

      Cons

      Generally, people aren't happy to work here. Morale is quite low. They treat consultants like second class citizens and lifers have an entitlement attitude.

      Just OK, getting worse all the time

      Pros

      Professional People, very intelligent coworkers. Travel is reasonable. Able to balance family and job.

      Cons

      Very limited opportunities unless you want to be in loss mitigation/servicing. Reputation is terrible outside of mortgage business. It's hard to even get interviews with other companies unless you want to stay in mortgage biz. Fannie Mae's name in business world is awful - feel blackballed. FNM is becoming very bureaucratic and management has decided to just let government do what they want. Management will just retire in a few years when this is over. They aren't looking out for the people who can't afford to retire in two years.
