Pros

Growing company Great office (dog office) Lots of awareness

Cons

Dishonest Sexist Elitist Greedy The company had I think over 2500 people and when I left there were more men named John in senior leadership than there were women in similar levels. Not because talented women don’t exist but because they have to work twice as hard to get half as far. Also, Ryan and Jared Smith are greedy and dishonest butt-heads. Where did the $500 million retention package from SAP go for employees? Straight into Ryan and Jared’s pockets when they were already billionaires. Ryan truly thinks he built this company by himself and has re-written the truth so many times at this point I don’t know what the real Qualtrics story is. But keeping stroking his ego cause if you are part of the inner bro circle, he might let you ride on his private jet. Yippee.

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.
