Pros

Vibrant culture. Work depends on the team; some teams are great, some are very bad.

Cons

No WFH is provided. Focus is only on the Pune region.

I'm glad you are enjoying the culture and our Pune location does provide a great environment for our employees. We've actually found that many of our Pune employees would rather work from the office because the environment is condusive to collaboration and fun. We provide employees with flexibility in their schedule as we realize "life" does always happen on a schedule. I believe we do a good job of focusing on our best talent but certainly will look for ways to reward top talent. If you have ideas, please drop me an email message or Slack me. ~Jim Cassens, CEO

Pros

Perforce is a very employee-friendly company with a supportive work culture. The company offers great perks, including 10 days of paternal leave. Managers and directors generally don’t put unnecessary pressure, allowing you to work comfortably unless deadlines require extra effort. They use a modern and solid technology stack. There is significant potential for growth, both professionally and technically. The hybrid work model (2 days in-office) offers a good work-life balance.

Cons

Limited transport facilities due to the relatively small office footprint. Providing morning and evening snacks/fruits at the snack station could be a nice addition.
