Pros

Flexible work hours for Software Engineers Paid time off can be used either as sick or vacation leave. This means you can use unused sick leaves as vacation leaves. HMO coverage is the best. PEC covered also for dependents.

Cons

Work can be boring for those who wants challenging tasks. Bell curve is still used in giving ratings but there is a promise to go away from this.

Pros

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!
