Pros

- Seems like the pay "used" to be very competitive. Really up in the air now. - Decent PTO. - Nice office - Snacks - Free lunch

Cons

- Mostly putting out fires and bug hunting than developing. - RTO is being pushed. It's being called hybrid but it's 4 days a week in office. Not really hybrid in my opinion. - Change of company ownership. It's caused a bit of churn. - On-call can be a lot. - Work-life-balance is sometimes just work depending on the group your in. - No longer publicly traded. Which used to be a huge factor in compensation. From the looks of it, employees might be hung out to dry.

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.
