Pros

Good and diverse work roles By the time you struck out to find other opportunities you will be confident and have a grasp of a handful of work experience and knowledge.

Cons

Local Management: Weak and go by the flow management, no proactive direction and competitive stance against local competitors in the job market. Local operations decision makers evident in weakness in critical decision making on progressive growth. Evidence by late pandemic vaccination, constant pay transparency and pay alignment concerns, attrition and reverting to full time office even when there are still options. Global Management: -CEO only talks about ASV -Marketing of differentiated solution thru product integration, without understanding actual situation from each of the group, individual groups trying to glue solutions as temporary band aid solution because sales assume it was possible. -Pay transparency and low pay a constant recurring issue. - Reorg created dummy leaders that are only to be inside another leader rendering the promotion useless while creating new workloads to the absorbing leader.

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!
