Business Outlook
Pros
Great pay, great benefits, friendly environment, and challenging projects. FactSet doesn't really have a "startup culture", but it still hits a perfect point just between "startup" and "corporation". You feel like you're important, but with the backing of a company that is conservative and constantly growing incrementally. Work/life balance is really great, you're not expected at all to work over 40 hours.
Cons
Debatable if this is a pro or con, but lack of startup culture. We don't have ping-pong tables or anything like that, but maybe that's a good thing. I wish it was just a little more though, for example, we only do a hackathon once a year, and participation isn't super high.
