Pros

Flexible work from home option, generally no supervision, they let you get your work done in your own time as long as it isn't a showstopper.

Cons

bad benefits. there is a bonus twice a year which is based on your billable hours. They only give you 2/3 of that bonus...the other 1/3 you get if you last until the next bonus.. you never get your full bonus at once.. there is always 1/3 of it in their hands even though you have already worked for it. We only get Christmas day off... even if it is on a Tuesday. You also have to accrue time off before you can use it. You only get 5 hours every 2 weeks... and you can only request off in 4 hour increments.....even though you get 5 hours at a time.

Perficient values your feedback and is disappointed to hear our benefits are not what you expected. In October 2017, 90% of our more than 3000 colleagues completed a company wide survey and 70% of our colleagues are satisfied with our total rewards package. Perficient strives to offer a competitive benefit package for our employees and continuously looks for ways to enhance our over all employee benefits each year. We will be sure to share your feedback with the team and encourage you to share this with your leadership to ensure your perspective is heard.

Pros

- Ability to deliver great outcomes for clients, public companies. - Great hands-on team and project manager.

Cons

- Even before you sign up your title will be 1 step below what you applied for. I overlooked it. - Directors and GM are sales, they do not care about quality, there is no incentive to improve quality. Forget about TDD or BDD, QA is billable. - Most Clients are getting slow, hard to scale implementations, so Directors can sell Performance optimizations as a separate project. Which is contradicts my ethical standards. - Class system, whoever is not in Business class signing SOWs, is a commodity and utility, technical coding/qa monkey. - No way you will be able to move between departments/BUs even if you have skills to get job done. - You will know about you last day on a Friday morning. There will be ZERO severance package.

Pros

Perficient is a growing company. There are ambitions to become a $1 billion company and they are very aggressively chasing that goal. That means there is always something going on and office jobs are stable, even if consultants job aren't.

Cons

The company doesn't care about its people. It was the last company I know of that still had people going into the office throughout the coronavirus outbreak, and leadership continued to ignore the situation despite plummeting morale and the fact that they were ignoring advice from the CDC and government and putting the entire St Louis community at risk. The most frustrating part of the company is they insist that Perficient is people driven, but the top leadership of the company is dismissive of the concerns of everyone throughout. Recent changes made by the COO have involved no consultation with others and have meant people are left doing jobs inefficiently and have been taken away from doing more important things, which would be easily avoidable if those in power just listened to the people doing the work. Events regularly get canceled because they're supposedly a waste of time even though they also try to brag about the odd event they don't cancel and insist the culture is important. Maternity leave only became a benefit last year, and it's still only two weeks, which is pathetic and archaic. The leaders still patted themselves on the back about it and ignored that this wasn't enough because they are all old men making big money that don't understand regular people's lives. Benefits are below average in general and way behind the times in the IT industry.

Thank you for your service and we hope to find a way to turn your experience around. We recommend talking candidly with your leadership, sending an email to glassdoor@perficient.com, or speaking confidentially to HR. Please know the health of our Perficient community - with employees at the foundation of that - has always been our top priority and continues to be so. All of our offices have individually complied with all CDC and WHO regulations and guidelines, mandating work from home when it was recommended to. Leading up to that, we always offer flexible work or remote work as the role allows and stocked offices with hand sanitizer and Lysol wipes as soon as there was concern. If you have suggestions for anything else we can do to make employees feel comfortable, we invite you to share as we all continue to navigate the pandemic and our business continuity plan to any of the channels listed above. All of the COO's initiatives are based around creating efficiency and are regularly reported on company-wide and the additional maternity benefit you mention is a direct result of employee feedback. We hope there is a way to help turn your perspective around and open the chance to do so.
