There's a high turnover rate in my division... This is not surprising given that I am on the IT side of things, things are moving quick even for Freddie Mac...
Only some teams get the coaching and structure required to function as a true and fast moving Agile team.
The whole company is mired in red tape, paper pushers, bureaucracy - it slows down all IT processes - this makes performing duties external to your team at best incredibly slow and at worst nearly impossible.
You need approvals, rubber stamps, head-nods, for anything you want to accomplish...
Also, work life balance is far better on the business side than the IT side - we have more deadlines, there is always something being tested, retested, pushed into production, etc. Business just goes home.
Finally, politics... The company is the political scheming capital of the world - this is applicable to both IT and business, tons of back stabbing, scheming, etc. Be careful. Do not voice your opinion and do not align with anyone - you never know how things will pan out - things change politically at Freddie Mac all the time - I've worked for FM too, it's very similar.
Good luck all...
