Pros

Qualtrics was my dream job, and for the first couple years it was nothing but good. Solid career growth, great trajectory as a company, and engaged leadership. Have gotten a ton of good experience and some of the middle management is still quite decent. Great benefits, decent pay for Utah area, lots of fantastic food.

Cons

- Zig and Ryan are grossly overpaid (look up highest paid CEOs in 2021) and no one connects to Zig or frankly any of the senior leadership. Company-wide meetings make me want to vomit. - Lots of the company culture has become robotic and overly political - In 3 years we have been bought privately by SAP, spun out public, and bought privately again by Silverlake. - In 3 years we have gone from in-office, to fully remote, to hybrid, to 4 days in office. Lots of whiplash, no reason for it besides remote for covid. - It's just sadly not the special place it once was. Going public really took the fun out of it for those of us who aren't billionaires.

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.
