Pros

Modern technology stack Great work life balance Company enable market liquidation and allow people to buy houses. Feel good to see that your work is making a big impact to common people Great CEO and a transparent C suite

Cons

I feel the biggest cons is company senior management. Most of the VP’s, Sr. directors and directors have less than 15 reports. Many actually have much fewer. Best they are working at a manager capacity, but enjoying heavy perks of senior executives(big big bonuses). It leaves very little space for middle management to grow and eventually the associates. Career path is almost negligible unless they chuck out more than 50% of senior management. Especially; technology executives (VP, Sr Directors and directors) are not much technical and only does micro managing and reporting chores. No good leadership and vision comes from this layer. And this a common theme across all big organization. Secops, technology and PMO.

Pros

If you like to switch around onto different teams, they love that and will support horizontal movement with the same pay. Lots of employee engagement opportunities even though it is remote.

Cons

Too much change going on with the FHFA getting too involved. Threatened to bring employees back to the office, then stayed remote again. People got laid off, and instead of hiring more people they just rotate people horizontally instead of promoting people vertically. The amount of projects and work keeps increasing but there is not enough staff to support it, ends up becoming a toxic environment of overworking. No pay boost either, just arbitrary work rewards to appreciate you.
