FactSet ranked 4 on Glassdoor.com’s “Top 25 Companies for Work-Life Balance”

FactSet Research Systems was named fourth on Glassdoor.com’s list of the Top 25 Companies for Work-Life Balance. FactSet scored 4.4 out of 5.

"As technology has made it easier to work remote and the lines around the 9-to-5 work day have blurred, we feel it’s important to highlight those companies that recognize employees’ needs beyond the demands of their jobs. This list from Glassdoor honors those companies where employees feel work-life balance is encouraged and valued," said Robert Hohman, co-founder and CEO of Glassdoor.

“We’re proud to have been ranked so highly on the Glassdoor list," said Mike Weiner, FactSet's Director of Recruiting. "Providing excellent benefits and a challenging work environment for our employees allows us to support both their personal and professional lives."

Glassdoor’s list of top companies for work-life balance relies solely on the input of employees who elected to participate in a 20-question survey. Specific to work-life balance, the survey seeks to find out how satisfied employees are with senior leaderships’ support and understanding for balancing work life and personal life, and for how flexible employers are in giving employees the time off they need to handle everything from car maintenance to home-life issues. The list is derived from surveys submitted between April 1, 2010, and March 31, 2011.

FactSet has also been recognized by Glassdoor.com as one of the 50 Best Places to Work in 2010 and 2009.
