Fannie Mae Software Engineering Manager reviews

Bureaucratic nightmare for application owners Toxic work environment, my Director was the worst manager I had in 20+ yrs Low morale after the hope of getting out of gov’t conservatorship vanished. Many talented people exiting which is causing tribalism led by the “old guard lifers” remaining to protect their turf. Politics has become more important than ability

Dev Managers are micromanaged by every level of the company in the name of compliance Internal recruiting is ineffective and insulting to employees looking to make a move Lost innovative mindset in favor of risk aversion, especially in technology Meeting centric culture where you'll spend 90% of your day in meetings No raises in 2 years after the talent architecture rollout Everything in the company is so locked down, developers feel like they are in prison. The CEO is a personable guy but he's a semi-retired figure head that's not running the company.
