Pros

Culture has evolved significantly with new CEO and leadership driving true growth and aligning everyone of a clear vision and opportunities. Perforce has became a leading DevOps vendor in so many fronts

Cons

Like in any other company: you need to find the right balance between all aspects of business, technology and life. not a real reason not consider Perforce, just understanding that the company goes through growth challenges, but this is very minor comparing it to other envs I worked at.

As leaders, we’re committed to fostering a workplace where employees feel trusted, supported, and valued—not micromanaged or overwhelmed. Recognizing the need for continued improvement, we’ve recently made additional changes within the team. Across Perforce, we make it a priority to celebrate exceptional work through programs like our Perforce Hero segment at All Hands meetings and the Customer Champion Awards. If you’re open to a conversation, I’d genuinely appreciate the opportunity to connect and hear your thoughts on how we can further strengthen the work environment. Please feel free to email me to set up a time. ~ Jim Cassens, CEO

Thanks for the message and I'm glad to hear you are enjoying the culture here at Perforce. With the latest acquisition, we crossed another plateau in growth and our processes need to evolve to support a larger organization. We are also updating a number of processes with AI. Thanks for leaving the message. ~Jim Cassens, CEO

Pros

I used to call this the best job I ever had, because I was well paid (for my title) and I felt like I was trusted to try new things for the first year or two. Unlimited time off is nice, but necessary for managing the constant stress. I wish I'd used a lot more of it. Free snacks are great and company outings can be nice. They keep acquiring companies, so working for such a big company can be a nice resume booster.

Cons

Roles are poorly defined and the organization "runs lean," which means responsibilities keep growing until you're really underpaid for the work you do. Same for your coworkers. Instead of clear responsibilities, everyone kind of does everything until everything’s done. The amount of work ranges from 'a full plate' to just crushing. Bullies and bad actors thrive because they're encouraged to squeeze the people below them for more and more work. Some managers would be happiest with a small army of AI robots to do their bidding instead of people with goals and ideas. The disrespect ranges from the professional to the personal, but it's all ignored at the leadership level. Promotions are rare and raises do not keep pace with inflation. Department leadership is constantly reacting to the fancies of their bosses, rather than standing up for their teams, so people at the middle and bottom always have to scramble to keep up with unreasonable expectations.

I'm glad you were able to enjoy the culture at our Minneapolis location. It is truly a fun environment with team and company outings, happy hour on Thursday's, social activities, a fun area with ping pong, video games, a golf simulator and much, much more. And you can't forget about the free snacks and community lunch provided to the entire location on Wednesdays. We work hard to make sure we offer competitive pay and benefits. We have promoted over 150 employees this year as the business continues to grow both through exciting acquisitions and organically. We have engaged in additional training for leaders at all levels to ensure we are engaging employees at every role and addressing any concerns that they have. I would love to have an opportunity to speak with you on a personal level to help understand where you feel we could improve. Thanks for leaving the post, ~Jim Cassens, CEO
