Pros

Satisfaction in knowing that Fannie Mae does help people own homes, strong benefits package (despite recent cuts), genuinely nice people in middle management and individual contributor ranks. Herb Allison seems to have a clue so far.

Cons

The current economic situation puts us in the crosshairs. Previous CEO exacerbated the effect of the housing downturn by increasing Fannie Mae exposure to non-performing Alt-A loans.

Pros

Fannie Mae provides the perfect balance between work and personal life. The number of hours are not long usually (unless you were on the restatement team for a while) and most people are out of office by 5. Fannie Mae's compensation and benefits are also one of the best in the industry (even though no one is sure what will happen since we went into conservatorship). Benefits are excellent including a great 401k match of 6% and an additional 2% on top.

Cons

Job routine could be mundane and boring at times.

Pros

The benefits and the compensation..Paternity leave and family sick time off.The shuttle between the different offices if you need to get from one place to the next..Six flags company outing for a day. Healthy living day off.

Cons

unrealistic deadlines..Too much pressure and a lot of politics..Management not that supportive to employees..Might be more in some teams than in others.Career advancement is not that easy.
