Pros

There are pockets of good people throughout the company and some good managers on the business side, but executive leadership has misguided direction and the new IT management is highly destructive.

Cons

IT management is horrible with favoritism and bullying occurring at every level from CBTO down to middle management. Completely inappropriate and demoralizing behavior.

Unsure of advancement opportunities. Compliance and regulations (FHFA is regulator) are onerous.

Thank you for your review. The work we do for our members gives us a shared sense of purpose. And while we aren't a huge organization with endless opportunities to advance, we are a great mid-sized company with endless opportunities to develop!
