Pros

HR paid out my vacation hours in a timely manner in my last paycheck

Cons

The 4 people in their Glassdoor home page banner are all laid off, or quit due to dissatisfaction. What does that tell you? Gross nepotistic politics, lack of strategic direction, incivility, disorganization, and general ineptitude. Perficient's best attribute and competitive advantage ought to be the end-to-end delivery of digital solutions through cross-functional business unit collaboration. However, any such collaboration is laughably underinvested, non-existent, ignored. One business unit will intentionally put unqualified people on a cross-functional project just so they can recognize the revenue. This is compounded by a good old boys leadership culture where a few key (but ineffective) people attempt to create a business strategy. Where marketing and HR doctor employee survey responses, or just skip them altogether in the years they don't want any feedback. Where billable hours are hidden or falsified by directors. Want to rise up the ranks? Great. Use your personal credit card to bill all your travel and expenses, and pay the interest while waiting for Accounting to reimburse you. Don't walk. Run.

Pros

Very little outside of some of the people you work with. FTO is only nice if you have a manager who lets you use it. They did allow work from home, not sure if that is still the case.

Cons

This company was run poorly by Tom Hogan before private equity bought it but the buyout accelerated their decline. If you want to be a cog in the machine, this is the place for you. The leadership is only focused on themselves. They will praise you or throw you under the bus depending on how they feel it makes them look to their bosses. The employees who don’t have a stable long term project live in fear of being let go irregardless of talent and many of their most talented are leaving because they see the writing on the wall.
