Pros

Catered Meals. Awesome company as a whole, with a great product that creates a lot of buzz. I would recommend a position outside of the sales org.

Cons

Sales org needs some fresh outside blood (which I was). Almost all management has only ever worked at Qualtrics and has limited sales experience. And the way Qualtrics was sold when they were a rep is very different than it is now as the company has grown. They brought me in as a Senior Rep for my experience, then forced me into their metric focused way of doing everything. I have never in my life been so micro managed. It sucked any potential good out of the job within months. You either fit the culture or you don't. If you don't you'll be pushed out. They claim to be family friendly and flexible. But when it comes down to it, I always felt like it was not ok if I had to work from home with a sick kid. If you are not head down in your seat working, they assume you aren't working at all.

Pros

Fantastic people work there and it's a good place to start your career. The workplace perks are decent, there are snacks and lunches provided at the office. There are also good accommodations for mental health, religious observances, and nursing mothers.

Cons

The company pivoted to "business need" as a reason for promo. Promotions are now seemingly few and far between despite higher level individuals leaving. Recent restructuring has left those still working at the company with less time to do actual client work and more time being spent documenting the work done. ELT doesn't seem to actually listen and instead performs listening theatre.
