Pros

Great work/life balance, especially if you have a family, but ONLY on certain teams. Make sure the team you're joining is OK with flexibility.

Cons

1% raise for comp for exceeding expectations (a 2 on a 1-5 rating scale where 1 is best and 5 is fired)?!?!?! Compensation was just as bad last year and I did not think it could get any worse but boy was I wrong. Everyone is looking for another job... you cannot risk getting a bad comp for a third year.

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!
