Pros

Good work life balance. No emails over the weekend and half days off on Fridays

Cons

Lots of silos: Sales, product and engineering are three different organizations that are not aligned and don't communicate well. No accountability: co-workers constantly throwing things across the fence. I found myself many times in limbo between two teams each pointing to each other to manage things. Not customer centric which leaves the customer facing teams joggling responses to customers. Very bureaucratic and hierarchical. If you are outside of NM it's very difficult to get things done and get promoted. We would always celebrate "another great quarter" but since the goals were never publishes you'd never know whether that real or not.

Pros

Perforce is still a good place to work at. I enjoy the technology, my co-workers, my commute, the work I do, so I can't complain. Perforce, when privately owned, was a wonderful place to work, but even now it is still a good place. 401k matching, bonuses, massages, bagels, juices/soft drinks, fresh fruit are still offered. Company is still growing and hiring. Change is hard for some people, but it's an inevitable part of life and everyone should take stock of their own situation. If you don't like your current situation you can always go elsewhere.

Cons

The current company is different than the old Perforce, and yes the mood can sometimes be a bit down when people leave to pursue other opportunities. And there is some uncertainty as other companies are acquired.
