Pros

Good Pay, Benefits, Co-Workers, Offices, Free Lunches

Cons

Qualtrics was a good company to work for but now its just a puppet company to a private equity firm. Ever since we got acquired by an private equity firm decisions have all been about money and leadership are just copying other companies playbooks in order to reach our goals rather than taking the risks and losing face or making improvements. Everyone looks at spreadsheets rather than people. Our goal is to go public but that usually means that it is all about looking good according to the numbers. This means that a lot of the good things about working here were cut since they didn't really cut our pay. High performing workers (layoffs, and silent resignations), promos(once a year and very few slots), and outsourcing (just for cheap labor and more money) just to name a few. If you are a bright eyed worker wanting to work for a company to do good in the world and work at a purposeful company I would stay away until we go public again. If you are a 9-5 guy just doing enough to get by but don't really care about the company vision by all means come join the fun.

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.
