Pros

Good pay, good benefits, nice OFFICE perks (gym, lunch, snacks, soda, gaming), chill teammates

Cons

Absolutely, resolutely hostile to the idea of remote work. Dug in throughout the pandemic, telling everyone not to get used to WFH, refusing to extend any benefit or perk in that direction, and continuously bumping out the "return to office" date, screwing many new hires that moved to Utah/Seattle with expensive rent only to keep working remotely in that apartment. Hiring/Ratings/Promotions are rigidly done by committee and rubrics, which seems fair until you see how the system is gamed by those who know how to work it. This is a salesbro-centric company and everything revolves around the sales department. Engineering is an afterthought and the deep tech debt reflects that. Qualtrics was born and bred at BYU in Utah and desperately wants everyone to forget it, including all its native Utah employees. Political speech and activism is encouraged as long as it is the *correct* speech and activism. This is a company that promised its early employees a rocketship, then openly bragged about not giving them decent equity when they sold out to SAP.
