One time cool tech heavy place to work, now trying to be more average than the average. - Account Manager Persistent Systems Employee Review

Pros

It is still possible - though not easy or guaranteed - to work with some good people on interesting projects.

Cons

The culture just doesn't "get" technical people or what drives them any more. Your perceived value depends on how many people report to you not whether you are technically good; there is no real growth path for anyone who wants to stay technical. There are stifling layers of bureaucracy and mindlessly formulated policies and procedures that leave you wondering whether the company actually wants you to produce anything of quality or even anything at all. Most policies and messages emanating from management regard employees as not to be trusted or allowed to exercise any intelligence of their own.

Pros

Persistent Systems provides good learning opportunities, supportive teams, and exposure to real client-facing projects. The work environment is professional, and employees get chances to improve technically, take ownership, and grow with the right guidance.

Cons

Since I am still relatively new to the organization, I have not experienced any major cons that need to be highlighted at this point. So far, the overall experience has been positive, and I am still learning more about the company culture, processes, and long-term growth opportunities.

Pros

I recently joined Persistent Systems and have had a positive experience so far. The company provides opportunities to work with modern technologies, learn new skills, and collaborate with talented professionals. The onboarding process was well organized, and the support from team members and managers has been helpful. The work environment is professional and employee-friendly, with a strong focus on continuous learning and career growth. I appreciate the company's investment in training, certifications, and emerging technologies such as AI and automation. The culture encourages collaboration, knowledge sharing, and innovation.

Cons

Compensation can be lower than market rates for certain roles and experience levels. While the learning opportunities and work environment are strong, salary growth may not always keep pace with industry benchmarks.
