      Management always looking for scapegoats for their own leadership failures

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Always challenging work to do and a lot of smart people to learn from. Excellent salaries and benefits. Flexibile work arrangements allowed.

      Cons

      Lot of backstabbing and fingerpointing when deadlines that were unreasonable in the first place were not met. Company has gotten very top heavy, lots of people telling others what to do and not enough doers to get all the work done.

      Bad Place to work

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      There is a Work from Home component, but it keeps changing, so I am not sure where that stands

      Cons

      Perceptive has no work life balance, they want you available at all times. They give you a blackberry so you can be reached by management or the client at all hours. There is no room for advancement, if you are good at your job, they just give you more work. They do not support new idea's, to help streamline process. Management does not accept feedback, they just give. Once you show a desire to move to another position, the work environment becomes worse, if you disagree, they will literally make up a reason to fire you. Staff that is incompetent is kept on much longer than they should.
