Pros

Qualtrics is a mentoring and collaborative atmosphere. Truly a team effort. The "extras" that Qualtrics provides the employees are above and beyond: catered meals, free healthcare, the coolest swag....the list goes on and on. It's exciting to be a part of one of the fastest growing SaaS companies in the world and the leader in this space.

Cons

We are hiring so fast it is hard to know everyone. Not really a con.

Hook you in with flashy things but then treat and pay you crap

Pros

You will have job security knowing that the company isn't going anywhere which can be nice. It's a young fun atmosphere. There coverage and health benefits are amazing and they have good fringe benefits. Free food and clothes throughout the year was a plus.

Cons

You will be under a microscope daily no matter how well you perform. POLITICS POLITICS and more POLITICS is the only way you will move up in this company. There expectations for quota, daily metrics and such are not matched by their pay. The sales cycle for the product is 3 months minimum so you better have some money put away to live.

We would love to help you thrive at the Q. Please let your leaders know how we can remove the politics holding you back. We really strive for transparency so that these things only get better with time.

Pros

Qualtrics has a great product, good food and they offer good employee perks like pool tables, ping pong, etc. They have grown their business on cheap labor which is one of the key reasons they are financially sound. Leadership is OK. Could be better. The employees and your peers at Qualtrics are awesome. That was my favorite part of working at Qualtrics where the people I was able to work with.

Cons

If you weren't in early on, there is a great chance you wouldn't be going up the chain very fast and won't make very much money unless one of the owners has some interest in you. Be prepared to drink the kool-aid from management that everyone will make a lot of money, that you can't be successful unless you are Qualtrics, everyone will be millionaires, etc. If you get on the core leaderships side and they like you, you will get lots of perks.
