Pros

Competitive Salary, Christmas Presents, Home Office, Great team. Good collaboration between my team members and the other local teams.

Cons

The free trial services and products are limited in functionality. This leads the users to think the paid ones are also limited and this leads to a bad first impression.

Thank you for the feedback on our free trials. Drop me a note on which product you are referring to and we can see about improving this process. For products like Helix Core, we provide free use for up to 5 users and that's complete access to the product. Interesting you commented on interoperability between UI's. Getting to a common UI between core products will take time - think years not months. But, we do have goals to create integrations between products that will make sharing between products easier for our customers. We are also looking at creating more UI standards that will support commonality moving forward. We are obsessed with creating strong working teams with great collaboration and I'm glad to see you've noticed. Thanks for the post! ~Jim Cassens, CEO

I appreciate the feedback on your experience with Perforce and I'm glad you were able to enjoy the work / life balance we provide. People are our greatest asset and we feel they are at their best when we can provide a balance between life and work. Perforce is a growing organization and with growth comes change, adoption of new ways of doing things and new opportunities. Sometimes that means change in people and responsibilities. With our growth through acquisitions, change will be constant but does provide unique opportunities for employees looking for career growth. ~Jim Cassens, CEO

Sorry to hear your experience at Perforce could have been better. I had the opportunity to review our product roadmaps with our Product and Engineering teams. We are adding exciting new AI based features, improving user experience with a new interface in our version control product and adding new capabilities to other key products. All of these new ideas actually came from our employees and customers, working together to innovate on features the customers are looking for. I'd love to share more and if you're up for it, reach out to me on email. ~ Jim Cassens, CEO
