Perficient Named A 2025 USA Today Top Workplace

Our colleagues around the world are united by a collaborative culture that champions, challenges, and celebrates every individual. We are proud to share that Perficient has been honored as a 2025 USA Today Top Workplace, which recognizes companies nationwide for their people-centric work culture. 

With nearly 7,000 global colleagues, we are dedicated to fostering an inclusive environment that values every voice and embraces diverse perspectives. This prestigious award reflects the significant impact our people and company have on a global scale. Our U.S. colleagues previously participated in a voluntary survey conducted by Energage, an employee and research technology company. The results were then compared against the Top Workplace benchmarks. This honor showcases the remarkable influence our team has in creating a positive work environment.

We take great pride in this recognition, which is based solely on our colleagues’ feedback. This award contributes to our growing list of accolades, including multiple regional Top Workplace honors. The 2025 USA Today Top Workplace award marks the third consecutive year Perficient has received a national top workplace distinction, further underscoring our commitment to building a people-first culture.
