Pros

- Qualtrics has a great atmosphere and culture. But offering snacks, massage chairs, and basketball hoops does not make up for the fact that they pay nothing. Even when you ask for a raise you are asked to "prove yourself" even if you've been there for years and have proven yourself already. - Definitely have the best product out there. It's the best survey platform, hands down. - Lots of nice people. Lots of not nice people, too, but lots of nice people. - Free healthcare, which is really generous.

Cons

- Lots of favoritism. The CEO chooses his best friends for promotions even if they're hardly qualified. - Pay nothing. The hardest working people get paid the least, except for the engineers. - Lots of flashy stuff to cover for the fact that their salaries are a joke. I don't need cereal and free lunches. I need to get paid what I deserve. - If you don't work your 9 hours, people judge you for leaving early or getting in late (even when it's for justified reasons). You don't have to work late or get there early, but if you don't, you get judged--even if you're doing your job and exceeding expectations.

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.
