Pros

Fairly well paid. Decent benefits. Relatively good opportunities to move up.

Cons

Huge lack of transparency from senior leaderships. Changes sprung upon employees w/o notice. One minute we’re acquired by SAP, next minute being spun. No insider info shared. No info on employee equity. Everything shared with employees was shared publicly with press. Company is shockingly vertical. Lower level employees aren’t privileged/trusted with info about strategic company objectives. All decisions are made top-down. Opinions are not sought and actively ignored. Qualtrics cares only that employees are “happy” but doesn’t treat lower-level lower employees with respect, solicit their opinions, or consult them before making job-impacting changes. If you’re used to being at a company were anyone can schedule 30 minutes with a senior leader, flee! It’s NOT that way here. Lower level employees are not valued. Company focuses on sales quotas over perfecting product. Big sales bro culture. No diversity.

It sounds like - from your comments about job-impacting changes - that there may be value in having a conversation with your HRBP to cover your concerns.

Pros

Great people to work with. Office culture and benefits are excellent. Clients bring variation to the job and interesting work

Cons

Limited mobility opportunities — typically comes from someone leaving and opening a spot instead of based on your job performance. Can get boring working on the same clients for years.
