Pros

Some good products and dedicated people.

Cons

Recent reorg left managers with too many direct reports especially in engineering. Now you have seasoned and skilled engineers (who could be doing a lot of cool stuff for FDS) left spending their time helping their 7 direct reports through the day including brand new engineers . It's a waste. In addition, now they have 7 one on ones each week...etc.. you are wasting your resources.

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!
