Working at FannieMae
Application Support Analyst (Former Employee) – Herndon, VA – September 27, 2018
As the job culture is very good, I like working at Fannie Mae. I never received much compensation benefits despite working late hours and weekends when i was an employee. Job Security or Advancement is literally dependent on your manager. Job Work/Life Balance i would rate as 5 as the upper management is very considerable trying to keep the team happy.
