Another victim of acquisitions, terrible Perforce leadership culture, steer clear at all costs.

Pros

Somewhat organizationally dysfunctional at times but had an overall decent culture with a lot of kind folks. There used to be lots of opportunity for organizational improvement on multiple fronts.

Cons

The Perforce acquisition of Puppet has not gone well at all. It wouldn't be overstating to say it's been a disaster. Perforce leadership clearly doesn't know what to do with the new DevOps toy they just bought and the Perforce management & leadership style is extremely opaque in terms of communication with employees. This is no longer a company that treats human beings with a basic amount of respect. Avoid at all costs.
