"I have been here for the past 8 years and it is a nice and stable place to work. But since my job role changed from Sr. Desktop Specialist to Security Analyst about a year ago, I have felt that I am really a Sr. Administrative Assistant, My skills are not utilized at all."

Senior PC Support Specialist

"I have worked at FHLB Boston for the last 5 years. The company seems to suffer from poor morale and no structure. The upper management seems to have no clue as to what is being done in the trenches. Over the past year, there have been some questionable hires that seem to be running the company in the wrong direction."

What do you like about working at Freddie Mac?

"The size of the bank is right for someone trying to make a difference - Easily manageable. Though built on 75 year old company value, the management is receptive, reasonable and ready to act on new ideas irrespective of who the idea is coming from. There is less of corporate air and drama in the rest of the employees also. Simple and smart people overall. Friendly overall. Additionally, they are very risk averse from a business point of view, which as the stock market proves, is not a bad idea. Above all, a good place to make good friends or well-wishers who try to get into your shoes to understand and help if needed."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Keep it cool, real and nice."

"The management should help the employees clear their fears of loosing the job. Critical decisions should be based on independent inputs and independent factfinding with conflict of interests, human behavioral analysis and independent root cause analysis into the issue. This will raise the motivation levels of the employees."
