Pros

The free lunches are great. The pay is great. The management is very skillful. The career opportunities are plentiful. I have worked at a lot of small businesses and I can say I love em. Well FactSet operates very much like a small business. Not much red tape and plenty of smart people working towards a common goal. Moral is generally high and our products are stellar. If you are looking to work at a company dealing with some of the latest technologies and solving the latest problems, than factset is the way to go. Go FactSet!

Work from home 3-4 days a weeks

Cons

Senior Management is Akin to a Sorority or Fraternity. They are treated exceptionally well and are shameless in their pursuits of recognition. Forced socialization - whether or not you participate in company events is part of your performance reviews. It's not enough to be a friendly, helpful coworker DEI Disgrace - millions and millions of dollars spent on making sure the wrong people are in the wrong job. But hey, they're the right ethnicity! Forced volunteering - another part of your annual review. They give you time off to volunteer at a company-sponsored event. But if you are the type who likes to just do your job, go home, and find life's satisfaction elsewhere, don't join Factset!
