Pros

Qualtrics has an energetic, yet relaxed environment. The company itself has a lot of momentum. I made very good friends while working there, and I ate a lot of free food.

Cons

They definitely roped me in with the flashy culture and free stuff, but it became clear pretty early on that this is not a place you want to stay if you want to have a very successful career. They start you at $35k-$50k depending on your position, and you'll do some climbing from there, but not much. All while you see executives show up in decked out BMWs and Land Rovers. Like several others, I personally heard some of the higher-ups brag to their visiting friends about how little they have to pay their employees. This place can be a great feather in the cap of a young college graduate, but if they want to keep quality employees, salary should be more competitive and there should definitely be more upward mobility rather than hiring management externally.

Pros

Free lunch and that’s everything

Cons

* No company vision * Pay is mediocre * Lack of growth opportunities * HR is TRASH! You will not be heard nonetheless * Sales driven, which is fine, but that changes every decision the company makes * Lack of product direction mainly because management sucks!! They cannot even prepare a decent product strategy document for a given FY. They ask the L4-L7 levels to come with product goals that they think are important! As long as you produce a BS concept on AI for your product, you are a star, you don’t have to even deliver it! Success metrics are only for the papers, they don’t care if they’re generating any revenue from it!
