Life at Perficient is defined by its unifying culture and the employees who personify it. This culture lives at the heart of everything we do and is visible in the work done for companies across the world. It remains consistent across all departments and is seen in the numerous game nights, holiday parties and happy hours hosted in our offices throughout the year.
The Life at Perficient blog is the website where this culture is identified and shared. It acts an outlet for employees across the company to collaborate and share their thoughts and experiences. While every story is different, they all work together to paint the unique picture that is Perficient’s culture.
I took a look back at what was shared on the life blog last year and researched which made the most noise with readers. Here’s what people found to be the most interesting, relevant, and just plain old good Life at Perficient blogs of 2019.
