Growing at all costs - Anonymous employee Perficient Employee Review

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.
