Our St. Louis Office Powered by Connection and Community

As Perficient’s global headquarters, our St. Louis office brings our culture to life through the relationships colleagues build and the connections we carry beyond the workplace.

The St. Louis office feels both familiar and deeply personalshaped by everyday moments and a small, big city connection where colleagues are often also neighbors or friends outside of work. That closeness shows up every day in how we celebrate together, support each other through life’s moments, and genuinely care about each other.” – Joey Mixon, Lead Vendor Coordinator, Finance Business Partners

Throughout the year, the St. Louis office hosts events that energize and engage teamsOur annual holiday party is a standoutwe’ve teed it up at Puttshack, where colleagues enjoy tech-infused mini golf, cocktails, and appetizers in a fun, relaxed setting. Crowd favorites, from chili cook-offs and Halloween costume contests in the fall to March Madness “Dips and Dunks” gatherings packed with snacks and friendly competition, give teams a chance to build relationships and recharge.

That same sense of connection shows up daily through team lunches, happy hours, and office-wide celebrations. Outside the office, our teams turn that culture into action through volunteer initiatives like highway cleanups and Hunger Action Month. By translating connection into collective impact, we strengthen our communities and reinforce our shared purpose to make a difference.

Even working remotelythe St. Louis office social events create meaningful opportunities to connect and build relationships beyond our day-to-day projects. The encouragement and camaraderie here inspire confidence and help everyone bring their very best to our clients.” – Christine Wolz, Senior Project Manager, AI Data Platforms Delivery

These experiences strengthen the relationships and trust that help us collaborate more effectively, think more creatively, and ultimately deliver stronger outcomes for our clients.

The St. Louis office ihighly collaborative, with colleagues who are supportive and always willing to help one another succeed. The culture is friendly, welcoming, and built on strong relationships, creating a great balance between delivering excellent work and enjoying time together as a team.” – Ellie Huss, Director, Custom Product Development Delivery 

Our New York City Office Built on Collaboration and Momentum 

Stronger teams drive stronger outcomes. In New York City, the same foundation of trust and collaboration reflects the energy of its surroundings—fast-paced, highly connected, and dynamic. It’s where teams come together to innovate and tackle complex challenges, delivering high-impact solutions for our clients.

What stands out is how frequently our teams choose to come into the New York office to collaborate. Conference rooms are consistently full, and we regularly host partners and clients, bringing energy into the space. Our management team is often in the office, making themselves available for team members to drop by and chat.” – David Wiesel, Vice President, Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance

Traditions play key role in shaping that culture. Bagel Thursdays offer a regular moment to connect, while outings to Yankees games, team dinners, and after-work gatherings give colleagues time to step away from project work and connect personally. Seasonal celebrations, including holiday mixers with white elephant exchanges, Super Bowl luncheons, and off-site events like our brand launch pizza-making and cocktail party at Kesté Pizzeria, further strengthen the sense of community.

The New York office reflects a strong, people-first culture. It is welcoming, inclusive, and collaborative—colleagues are consistently friendly, supportive, and willing to help one another. Even after spending time working remotely, I’ve always felt a strong sense of belonging and connection when in the office, which speaks to the authenticity of the culture.” – Ken Fishman, Associate Vice President, Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance

Together, these experiences create an inclusive environment where colleagues show up for one another, build meaningful relationships, and drive our collective success.  

Culture in our New York office connects the team across every level and sector of the business, empowering everyone to contribute to Perficient’s mission to Think Different.” – Maeve Martin, Corporate Office Administrator, Finance Business Partners

Being named a 2026 Top Workplace in both St. Louis and New York City reinforces our commitment to an exceptional colleague experience where every individual can thrive. This recognition reflects what makes Perficient different: our people and the award-winning culture we build together through collaboration, continuous growth, and meaningful impact.
