Pros

Qualtrics had a high hiring bar for a long time. I have worked with a number of incredible and talented individuals throughout my time, and they are by far the best part of the company. Sadly, many have either been laid off or are departing as Qualtrics has had a major shift in direction.

Cons

The current leadership team betrays every value Qualtrics was built on. Years of mismanagement, egregious pay for executives, bad accountability at the upper layers have made Qualtrics a husk of what it once was. Unfortunately, now employees are paying the price while executives have lined their pockets yet again after selling the company to a private equity firm.

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.
