Fannie Mae reviews

Wrok/Life balance is poor in some groups. Some directors send you emails on Friday afternoon asking for some deliverables on Monday morning, which means your weekend is gone. They take this for granted and so do that over and over again. Terribly old technology. The company was still using WinXP in 2015. Some VPs and directors never knew how to respect people. Bureaucratic environment. Poor IT support. On-board process was extremely inefficient and painful. It can take you 2-3 weeks to just have SAS worked. No one would want to help you because they do not want to experience the torture again.

- Upper executive management over the years have been replaced with Wall Street execs with less than ideal values and culture - Lack of commitment to the firm from most of the top executives who have been commuting weekly from out of town for over 5 years - Short-term focus (and hence lack of focus) - Sense of mission purpose is no longer clear - Politically motivated - does not operate like a "real" firm from a financial or results perspective - Unqualified leadership (by experience and domain expertise) at both the executive and middle-management levels - Go-along mentality is more a success criteria rather than results - Core IT services have been outsourced, it was a disaster and it's getting worse - Morale at the working staff level is "low"
