The titular polynomial is defined recursively by p(n,x)=x*p(n-1,x)+n! for n>0, where p(0,x)=1; see the Example. For an introduction to polynomial reduction, see A192232. The discussion at A192232 Comments continues here:
...
Let R(p,q,s) denote the "reduction of polynomial p by q->s" as defined at A192232. Suppose that q(x)=x^k for some k>0 and that s(x)=s(k,0)*x^(k-1)+s(k,1)*x^(k-2)+...+s(k,k-2)x+s(k,k-1).
...
First, we shall take p(x)=x^n, where n>=0; the results will be used to formulate R(p,q,s) for general p. Represent R(x^n,q,s) by
...
R(x^n)=s(n,0)*x^(k-1)+s(n,1)*x^(k-2)+...+s(n,k-2)*x+s(n,k-1).
...
Then each of the sequences u(n)=s(n,h), for h=0,1,...,k-1, satisfies this linear recurrence relation:
...
u(n)=s(k,0)*u(n-1)+s(k,1)*u(n-2)+...+s(k,k-2)*u(n-k-1)+s(k,k-1)*u(n-k), with initial values tabulated here:
...
n: ..s(n,0)...s(n,1)..s(n,2).......s(n,k-2)..s(n,k-1)
0: ....0........0.......0..............0.......1
1: ....0........0.......0..............1.......0
...
k-2: ..0........1.......0..............0.......0
k-1: ..0........0.......0..............0.......0
k: ..s(k,0)...s(k,1)..s(k,2).......s(k,k-2)..s(k,k-1)
...
That completes the formulation for p(x)=x^n. Turning to the general case, suppose that
...
p(n,x)=p(n,0)*x^n+p(n,1)*x^(n-1)+...+p(n,n-1)*x+p(n,n)
...
is a polynomial of degree n>=0. Then the reduction denoted by (R(p(n,x) by x^k -> s(x)) is the polynomial of degree k-1 given by the matrix product P*S*X, where P=(p(n,0)...p(n,1).........p(n-k)...p(n,n-k+1); X has all 0's except for main diagonal (x^(k-1), x^(k-2)...x,1); and S has
...
row 1: ... s(n,0) ... s(n,1) ...... s(n,k-2) . s(n,k-1)
row 2: ... s(n-1,0) . s(n-1,1) .... s(n-1,k-2) s(n-1,k-1)
...
row n-k+1: s(k,0).... s(k,1) ...... s(k,k-2) ..s(k,k-1)
row n-k+2: p(n,n-k+1) p(n,n-k+2) .. p(n,n-1) ..p(n,n)
*****
As a class of examples, suppose that (v(n)), for n>=0, is a sequence, that p(0,x)=1, and p(n,x)=v(n)+p(n-1,x) for n>0. If q(x)=x^2 and s(x)=x+1, and we write the reduction R(p(n,x)) as u1(n)*x+u2(n), then the sequences u1 and u2 are convolutions with the Fibonacci sequence, viz., let F=(0,1,1,2,3,5,8,...)=A000045 and let G=(1,0,1,1,2,3,5,8...); then u1=G**v and u2=F**v, where ** denotes convolution. Examples (with a few exceptions for initial terms):

G.f.: (1-x)/(1-x-x^2)/Q(0), where Q(k)= 1 - x*(k+1)/(1 - x*(k+1)/Q(k+1)); (continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, May 20 2013
Conjecture: a(n) +(-n-2)*a(n-1) +2*(n-1)*a(n-2) +3*a(n-3) +(-n+2)*a(n-4)=0. - R. J. Mathar, May 04 2014

EXAMPLE

The first five polynomials and their reductions:
1 -> 1
1+x -> 1+x
2+x+x^2 -> 3+2x
6+2x+x^2+x^3 -> 8+5x
24+6x+2x^2+x^3+x^4 -> 29+13x, so that
A192744=(1,1,3,8,29,...) and A192745=(0,1,2,5,13,...).
