Pros

Tons of great people. Lots of opportunity. Business is always growing. Leadership that cares. Outstanding compensation. Fun cool problems to solve. Balance with family life. Great benefits. Culture of ownership, not denial. Part of a behemoth SAP, lots of great mentoring and resources.

Cons

Fast paced environment is not for everyone. Be ready to work hard, as everyone is all in. Part of a behemoth SAP, not able to directly impact equity valuations by top performance. Compensation is still great though.

Pros

From what I can tell, Qualtrics is generally following industry standards for tooling & processes, which makes you a competitive candidate for other companies. Standard tech perks in office & supports home/work balance.

Cons

Lacking senior leadership (haven't had a CTO in a long time) and prioritization is a mess - product & sales teams are constantly overselling, leads to us creating half baked products that go straight to top customers, etc. Not a lot of support from my management to change roles / move to another org; currently not promoting or hiring at all making promotions ultra competitive. The company also recently changed the ratings scale, screwing lots of people over.
