“Dear Joel,
On behalf of Perficient, Inc., I am pleased to make you this written offer of employment for the position of Director with Perficient’s MSFT CS US (and Canada) team…
We are confident you will find Perficient to be an excellent company in which to invest your time, talents, and energies. Perficient invests in our people through training, the opportunity to work with advanced technologies, and to work with other creative people. You will make a great addition to the talented team that is building Perficient into one of the leading technology management consulting firms in North America.
Anticipated Start date: 6/24/2019″
Super excited to get started. I will not be moving. I will be working in their national or North America practice, and yes they support me in my global efforts as well. I definitely see this as a great opportunity to help them and continue on the path of digital transformation for the world. With their help, I’ll be able to do even more for the community. This is a Win/Win/Win.
Over the past decade Perficient has grown through acquisition… you may recognize any number of the more than 30 acquisitions… here are few notable ones: PointBridge Solutions, Northridge Systems, speakTECH, Genisys Consulting Inc., Southport Services Group, Clarity Consulting, Market Street Solutions, and Enlighten. You probably know Blue Rooster (16 Employees and the Product Rise) which is one of the top Intranet in a Box solutions, they bought the product and the employees who came with it, but not the company or brand.
Who is Perficient? They are the industry’s best kept secret, but don’t take my word for it. Here’s some information I’ve clipped information below from the Perficient website and wikipedia to better explain the company and relevance to you. You can read more about it on the Perficient site which I highly recommend.

Those asking… What does this mean? I say, this is what it sounds like. I’m going to be getting back more involved with the community, more speaking, more webinars, more community events and more customer experiences and outreach.
