Pros

You will have job security knowing that the company isn't going anywhere which can be nice. It's a young fun atmosphere. There coverage and health benefits are amazing and they have good fringe benefits. Free food and clothes throughout the year was a plus.

Cons

You will be under a microscope daily no matter how well you perform. POLITICS POLITICS and more POLITICS is the only way you will move up in this company. There expectations for quota, daily metrics and such are not matched by their pay. The sales cycle for the product is 3 months minimum so you better have some money put away to live.

Pros

Great benefits and resources available for their employees. In-office perks include catered lunches 3 days a week, 2 days with grub-hub credits, and free snacks and coffee daily; alongside office events and parties. There is a generally positive culture amongst the overall company.

Cons

Their actual company leadership does not always make the best decisions and rather than prioritizing root cause issues that impact both the customers and employees' daily work, they would rather prioritize shinier items that give the illusion of innovation. This will trickle down to the employees in the form of stressed deadlines, longer hours, and frustrated clients and/or frustrated teams you may work cross functionally with that are client facing. Your actual experience at qualtrics is largely based on what team/job function you are in and who your manager is. Additionally, there is a glaring diversity issue that remains unaddressed with no real effort to hire more underrepresented people of color, leading to the high turnover rate of underrepresented minorities who are not lucky enough to have great managers.
