I had the opportunity to work with some amazing teammates and exceptional managers. My manager(Bill) has been with the company for nearly three decades and genuinely cares about his team, he always goes above and beyond to support you during challenging times. The technology the company is working with is truly impressive, and I genuinely wanted to stay here for the long term because of the positive environment and growth opportunities.
Cons
I don’t see any major cons. I only left due to visa issues, which I had hoped the company could support given its size and strong reputation.

Thank you for taking the time to write a thoughtful review. We appreciate hearing about your personal experience and are glad to learn that you enjoyed working for PenFed.
Awesome place and people - complex and large finance operation and balance sheet yet still small enough to make an impact and build up solutions from the ground floor - creative place!
Great staff and middle management. Good benefits and facilities.
Cons
Upper Management - same tune as all the other reviews. This place is full of great people who don't know they are great. It's also full of bad leaders who think they are great. Unfortunately, the best performers are often rewarded with carrying the burden of underperformers and non-contributing leaders. In certain teams there is very limited in upward mobility. They are slow to weed out low performers and ineffective managers. All in, strong performers and high achievers might find this place frustrating. This is a place for those who like to coast through.
