Pros

The engineers at the company are very intelligent, driven, and generally good to work with. Office perks don't match companies like Google, but considering the size they are doing a great job with what they have. There is a lot of product growth within the company and chances for developers to expand their skill set and take on responsibility.

Cons

Career progression is poorly defined, and the team you are on can have a big impact on how much you progress (and enjoy your work). On-call can be stressful. Some legacy parts of the code base are annoying to work with.

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.
