Pros

Coworkers are kind and friendly and typically don't hesitate to help others. The common employees are the best part of this company.

Cons

Top level leadership is incompetent, greedy, and hypocritical. Employee experience is the last thing on their minds, and it has continued to plummet with the recent acquisition by private equity, SilverLake. 4 day RTO and 2 weeks remote "benefit," enforced if you're unlucky like me and get a bad manager Comp is getting worse, and promo opportunities have severely decreased, now dependent on a "business need" rather than strictly merit/readiness. WLB is heavily team-dependent, but my experience has ranged from okay to terrible, being asked to work on an occasional weekend or late nights. Some terrible managers and politics with arbitrary deadlines being pushed onto employees from leaders and no way to push back.

Enjoy the changes silver lake has made. We are getting more efficient and back to what Qualtrics is really good at.

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!
