Qualtrics reviews

Company is still burdened with a "sales bro" culture. Feels like it's a sales-first company, built around helping sales reps get the biggest paychecks possible. Even people in roles that are very not sales roles are still pushed to "get in front of customers" and be involved in deals. Sales revenue is one of the only metrics used, anywhere in the company, to measure performance. Sales org is definitely more important to Qualtrics than product / engineering. Qualtrics talks a big game on winning talent, but it's losing. Real talent planning doesn't happen. Qualtrics salaries were already lower than competitors, but 2022 salary updates were half the inflation rate and lagged far behind industry-wide salary growth in 2021. Despite efforts to improve benefits, medical coverage is worse in 2022 than it was in 2021. Little or no paths or opportunities to grow or progress in your career without leaving the company. Very little support for learning, growth, or development. Learning is dependent on either switching roles periodically or being lucky and having one of the rare managers who is good at coaching/mentoring. Qualtrics is working on a lot of these things, but the company is also going to hemorrhage employees unless they fix some of these problems fast.

Ever-increasing quotas for sales reps with tons of pressure to perform. They increase quotas but then lower compensation so that your OTE stays the same but expectations are higher. The company has aggressive growth goals but they do it at the expense of the pressure of their employees.
