Pros

- Some perks, others were the wrong size or broken when given - perhaps a HR deparment is important to have? - Education (they put a good emphasis on this) - Location (bar none in D2)

Cons

- The stock options are worth nada. They keep selling it to you in the interview, but it's baloney. - Your wage will not allow you to work in Dublin comfortably. You will leave Qualtrics partly beacuse of it. - You are a hamster on a wheel - you will be apart of a workoholic company, which can have disasterous effects on your own morale and employee engagement. People literally cannot stop talking about how obsessed they are about the product, industry or company. It is fundamentally weird. Work hard, yeah sure, but don't give yourself over completely to these folks. In at 830, out at 530. - People steal leads and opportunities like there's no tomorrow. A really warm atmosphere, right? - Rubbish tech - cool, we get a Macbook, but what about adequate headsets, chairs and tables - they suck for high volume calls (the actual average is not 40/60 calls a day in inbound/outbound, the group pushes the average and you feel neccitated to follow suit, especially if your manager is prompting you). - IT - Q are ridiculous vulnerable to IT issues and cyber attacks, with no IT department... Sales reps don't have any cyber awareness. - Hidden management - execs never talk to you, and almost look down on you, unless they are your manager (who are ridiculously stretched btw). - Recruitment paints an almost fake picture of the company through their (in hindsight) mad recruitment ads (which only hire men btw?) - ALLLLLLLLL MALE (XY) In sum, there are better companies.

Qualtrics Response
7y
Thanks for your feedback - I’m sorry to hear you didn’t feel like you could raise concerns with your manager when you were with us. We take our employee engagement very seriously and in our employee engagement surveys, all responses are confidential, no manager is able to see who said what, so it’s a shame to hear to didn’t feel like you could give your honest feedback. We rely on this to improve our employee experience and we are committed to putting in place improvements based on what our people tell us. For example, in the past 12 months we have invested heavily in training and enablement (including cyber security training for all staff) to help our people achieve their targets and progress their careers; we’ve revamped our reward and recognition programs; we’ve addressed feedback over some equipment such as providing new headsets to all staff; and we have taken big strides to address gender equality, partnering with the Clayman Institute - that’s just the start and we are totally committed to building the company and thriving as a result of having diverse views and backgrounds within the organisation.

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.
