Pros

1. Good culture 2. Good food facility 3. Depends on project ---> WLB

Cons

1. If need promotion, you need to play great politics with indian local management. 2. TA,HR and Leadership management is broke. Very least internal opportunities. 3. They have 2 to 3x from external, they wont give opportunity to chose the project to internal employee, even though they are capable. 4. Onsite opportunities are none. 5. Recognition everything depends on your immediate manager. so be good with them, nod head for what they say. recognition is very less.

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!
