Pros

Good salary Transport Program Good work life balance Good HR

Cons

Too Crowded Queues in the Canteen (Queues everywhere) Its a call center. Not a software company Hardly any innovation. Using old windows 32 API to develop user interfaces. Don't join the C++ /SQL team. Not enough diversity. Disengaged workforce. Horrible location. The DLF building in Hyderabad is too crowded and small.

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!
