FactSet reviews

- Not the typical 9AM-5PM, it simply depends on your team expectations. - Lunch time isn't very social. Everyone just eats at their desks. - Some people that have been here for a number of years that have the my way or the highway way of thinking - No summer Fridays - No bonus structure

Factset is Hub to most of the laziest people in this world. Bad engineering practises and manager pleasing attitude is prevalent across all management hierarchy. Most of the people working in the company have no clue what company does and how they make money. The culture is like a financial bank where you have to report your manager with the monotonous work you are given every week. Creativity is not encouraged nor professional growth. I worked there for 2.5 years because I got used to doing nothing. The company just wants cheap mediocre engineers to keep things going on. Many people stick to the company because of their personal gain and have no professional interest within FactSet. Poor coding practises and legacy code is all over the place. Too much of internal politics to push back work. All managers try to please each other instead of focusing the real work done. There are always some re org changes going on. Upper management has no clue about their products. It's really a good company for mediocre people. Afterall not everyone is ambitious. All smart people leave the company in less than a year. Those who can't find a job are just stuck there.
