Pros

they pay well, but it's not worth the aggravation

Cons

if you've ever seen the movie office space, this is it. As a contractor I had multiple project managers, directors, and a VP who each wanted a status update hourly. The philosophy is do the work first, plan the work later.

Pros

Fannie Mae provides good salary and benefits along with excellent career development opportunities for those willing to view this employment as a learning opportunity.

Cons

Never felt permanent. Folks constantly felt threatened with unannounced layoffs making for a tense environment.
