Pros
Benefits and perks are great at Q (although now declining) Pay can be good (if you negotiate hard upfront and don't mind 3+ year promo cycles and average raises) I have only had stellar managers in terms of people skills (but I was lucky). The work is meaningful. I'm proud to say I've made a positive impact on clients and on the world while working here.
Cons
LONG, painful promo cycles- like you kinda need to sell your soul a bit to advance....and that assumes the HR/payroll planning gods like you. Internal lateral transfers aren't approved unless more work and less pay. Silverlake is a VC who owns Qualtrics....so it does what VCs do....which isn't always helpful. The technical chops at the management level are in sharp decline. The culture is pretty much like the movie Mean Girls- both positives and negatives.
