- Free snacks sometimes - Remote was a nice benefit before they announced return to office - It's easy to coast at FactSet if people like you
- Multiple rounds of layoffs. The last round was handled rather poorly - Leadership is moving more and more jobs offshore - Announcement of return to office mandate - The compensation is abysmal - Lots of lifers at FactSet, especially in leadership. This has enforced a culture of "it's always been done this way". This has also meant resistance to real innovation and meaningful change - Failed initiatives and rise of AI make the company's future uncertain overall
