Not a bad place to work...

Pros

Good opportunities. Company is growing. Most of the people here are good people and have a team mentality. There are very strong and talented people here, so you stand to learn from them if you end up working with them on a project. Most middle management seem to care about their people.

Cons

Groups are siloed due to acquisitions. Base salaries are below market rate and you are told that the bonus plan makes up for that gap. The bonus plan rewards those who work/bill long hours and travel. So if you want a personal or family life, you are penalized by qualifying for a smaller bonus. It is a service company so your career aspirations will not always be top priority if they conflict with project and client needs. Internal support is not that great. Expense reporting policies are extremely rigid and the corporate expense dept seems overworked. They end up making mistakes, losing your receipts and you end up being penalized for it. I've had $4000 expense reports withheld from my paycheck because they could not find a $10 parking receipt. Their internal processes are not setup to scale as the company grows.

Pros

Some very good people to work with.

Cons

Management is a joke. They are only concerned about their own numbers and not about the people doing the work to get them their high salaries. The company has gone down hill since the late 90's. People have been promoted due to favoritism and based upon politics. Perficient is becoming a prime example of the "Peter Principle". Many of the senior consultants are not team players. Senior management takes credit for the hard work done by the Directors. Senior Management disrespects other leaders to the rank and file.

Pros

The amount of knowledge and experience that one can gather from your co-workers is invaluable. Many of the Senior people employed at Perficient have been in the industry for 6+ years at least. The type of work you get to experience during some of your project work is extremely varied and extensive. You will get the chance to work in many different industries, and gain a deep knowledge of these industries.

Cons

There definitely exists a groupie like mentality among some of the working groups. This can make it difficult to get placed on particular projects, or even career advancement. The professional review process is not reflective of the actual work you perform during your projects.
