Better Than I Thought It Would Be

Pros

The people from the bottom up are fantastic to work with. Qualtrics has done a great job of hiring top-tier talent, so you know the common denominator is someone who is intelligent, has drive, and who is willing to lend a hand to those around them who need training or help.

Cons

They can't yet compete with the remunerations of more developed B2B companies like Adobe. However, with the new infusion of cash, I'm hoping for a compensation overhaul for most sales people.

The best place to solidify your career

Pros

Qualtrics is the best place to learn and build a solid professional background. Qualtrics is not an easy ride, so if you are looking for a place to sit back and relax, then go work at a calling center. You wear many hats at the company, so your learning potential is huge. As an account exec. you can work really close with product development, marketing, relationship management, etc. So can definitely build a solid background in the tech. industry. The company believes in you. They invest so much in our professional development with 3rd party consultants. I like that Qualtrics is a rare startup in the valley. A place where you can become a founder, not just an employee.

Cons

Like any other young startup, we have our challenges. As a sales person you start at a low starting salary, and it takes a few months to get you ramped up. The company knows this, and has developed a new hire bonus program to reward hard work. Also, the benefits are sweet!

Pros

For those that excel, you can earn promotions every 6 months. The leadership team deeply cares and works hard to help you earn your next promotion. The people you are surrounded by will be top notch. It is rare to look to your left or to your right and not be impressed. The compensation is incredible because there are comp plans from 50k a year to over 300k a year all based on your promotions and performance. It is all up to you and no amount of politics will hold you back.

Cons

If you are looking for a job to just coast in, stay far away from this company as everyone is going a million miles an hour looking to make the news not just share the news.
