Pros

- Prague management are nice people - Friendly office atmosphere - No nasty politics or fake toxic culture you will find in other companies. People who were hard to deal with left Blazemeter already. - May be an interesting choice for junior engineers, but has very little to offer to senior engineers. - Jim Cassens, the new CEO seems to be a nice guy. In no other company you will find CEO commenting on Glassdoor.

Cons

- Most key knowledgeable engineers have left Blazemeter in both Israel and Prague. This loss was irreplaceable. You will often get the answer "nobody knows anymore" in this project. This explains the negativity expressed in the review "A Company I Want to Forget". - Prague managers have tried to leave too, interviewed at other companies but failed to pass, that's why they are still there. - If they have a job opening, it's most likely for someone who left. - Seniority levels seem randomly assigned in both Prague and Israel. A number of people are above their skill and others below. - Blazemeter product is too convoluted, a mixture of various technologies, very slow to innovate. The core is in PHP. Do not expect a big contribution or a revolution. If you are looking for easy money it may be ok. - Prague office is very small, perhaps 18 people including management and product. - No long term prospects - Honestly it makes no sense for Perforce to maintain Prague office in its current size.

Thanks for posting here on Glassdoor. We definitely are working hard to create a culture of open communication, friendly work environment, and interesting technology that is making a difference in software development. As you mention, our footprint in Prague is small but it's mighty. I had the good fortune of visiting that office this summer. Terrific people, great leaders who are passionate about the solutions they are supporting. As for BlazeMeter, we have big plans for this solution. Integrations are planned to other solutions that will drive significant value and additional benefits for our customers. We also have additional roadmap items that expand the use of AI within BlazeMeter. The office space in Prague is awesome. Great location, comfortable setting and leadership has made it very comfortable for employees to enjoy their surroundings with a breakroom that doubles as a fun space with games, couches, and all kinds of fun things. I can appreciate BlazeMeter has some technical debt but we are slowing updating the code and will continue to do so over time. I would enjoy an opportunity to speak to you one on one to understand from your point of view where we can improve. Thanks again for the post. ~Jim Cassens, CEO

Pros

Working at Perforce has been an incredibly positive experience over the past three years. The culture is open and inclusive, and there's a strong emphasis on transparency across all levels of the organisation. Collaboration across regions is smooth and encouraged, which has helped me grow both professionally and personally. The leadership is outstanding, especially our immediate leaders and senior leaders of support, who have been a constant source of support and guidance. The team environment is fantastic, with colleagues who are always willing to help and share knowledge. It’s a place where your voice is heard and your contributions are valued. The management is approachable, communicative, and genuinely invested in employee growth and well-being.

Cons

Honestly, I can't think of any negatives. The work environment, leadership, and team dynamics have all been excellent.

I enjoyed reading your post, mostly because it reflects on those cultural aspects that we have worked hard to improve on over time and what makes working at Perforce special. We are on a mission to be one of the most recognized software companies in the Twin Cities and the number one DevOps solution provider in the world. We couldn't do that without great people, like yourself. I believe we are on the right path as a company and hope you enjoy the ride as we embark on this journey. We will continue to improve while keeping our roots imbedded in a great culture. ~Jim Cassens, CEO

Pros

The company overall has a strong reputation and good projects.

Cons

internal practices extreme micromanagement. Very disrespectful in communication, often offends team members. Ignores company flexibility policies — while the Pune team works 2 days in-office, enforces 3 days . Ego-driven approach, lacks empathy, and undermines morale. Such behavior is damaging the company’s culture and reputation despite its strengths.

I appreciate you taking the time to post here. We've worked very hard in building out our India location which has grown significantly over the last couple years. The facilities are a fantastic place to work. Our culture is built around people and our leaders are taught to openly communicate to employees, treat everyone with respect, and create an environment where everyone can be successful. We do have a policy of required days in the office and this can vary by department. This is necessary to support our customers or the business. But, we do provide flexibility to everyone in their work hours, days in the office, and support when life happens requiring time off. We provide leaders with education throughout the year to ensure they are modeling our desired values and culture. If you'd like to have a one on one with me to discuss this deeper, please feel free to schedule some time with me. ~Jim Cassens, CEO
