      Company does great things, but not ideal as an employer

      Pros

      Good benefits, especially the housing assistance benefit that helps you purchase a home with a forgiven loan after 3 years of service. Does a lot of work in the community to make housing affordable to everyone. Company offers paid days off to volunteer int he community.

      Cons

      Many decisions are made at the executive level and not communicated down respectfuly or within a reasonable amount of time. Also has ahistory of overloading the company with contractors to get through tought imes thus straining the budget and not being bale to fully invest in permanent employees. This leads to frequent downsizing on a yearly basis.

      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

      The benefit is great. There is a balance between work and home life. When starting you career here after college Fannie is a great place to learn alot.

      Cons

      Tons of politics. Depending on the division you work in, there are some competent managers and some not.
