What is the salary like at UserTesting?

Very flexible and offers reasonable pay for the amount of time working.

Test can be hard to get from time to time.

Advantages of working at UserTesting was the salary was fair and a lot of true leaning happened. People are nice in that very corporate professional way. There was also a lot of modern tools at your disposal, though learning them is on you.

Even though I had been informed that the company needed major care after the acquisition last year, there was still a misunderstanding or misinformation of what was needed for the role. Also many roles have more than 1 person working at the similar level/ tasks that you can get support with. My specific role did not as well as minimal guidance on each counties countries needs. The whole time I was there was it was just figuring out what had to be done, laws that were involved, who needed to be spoken to, and how to implement actions. When things started to smooth out that is when the redundancy happened. When being made redundant I got the courtesy of an under 5 minute call where the manager told me the business made the decision that the position was going to be made redundant. The PBP took over and read out a legally approved script, asked if I had questions without any time to think or process. As soon as the meeting was over my computer was shut down and made into turned into a very expensive paper weight. All in all very high work expectations with minimal position support and no off boarding support.

I work completely remotely, the salary is competitive and the benefits are also good

They need to work on the promotion cycles

Managers being transparent telling you that you won't get a higher salary in this company

Before the merger it was already not so good, but after it everything is going all the way downhill! I was sold "high growth opportunities" when I joined, and to this day I haven't received a single salary raise, just fake promises of growth which will never come true They burnout the hardworking employees for nothing as reward, hard cases of favoritism as others already mentioned here, and also you will be judged if you say your opinion publicly when the company takes some of their useless decissions Lots of useless staff and high dependencies, also you will have to assist to lots of useless meetings where you don't even need to say a single word, even if you have a plain role like security engineer, dev or anything really Whether you have to work with code or infra, good luck trying to untangle that spaghetti plate, even worse if you are in a technical role in security, where you are expected to do and know every kind of stuff in that mess for the lowest salary ever for a technical security role and be in charge when there's a complex incident that needs to be solved They will also try to sell you "diversity, equality" and the whole rest of HR wonderful words, but when it comes to conditions, they change a lot depending on where you work from The only reward you will get for doing a nice job will be a pat on the back by your manager The conditions reality working from Spain is SUPER POOR, in security you are expected to have lots of knowledge from devops to dev and finally security, but then you see how you are getting paid 35k a year, while you can even check every other plain dev salary submit in here or in userzooms glassdoor exceeding that salary around +10k, and any other smaller companies offer you at least 50k for a similar position, its just a shame and laughing at the employee really that you can't find a lower paying position in any other company for a security role Also if you tell your manager about your salary, they will tell you "it's a nice salary and if you wan't more, then you won't find it in this company" Add to that the general burnout feeling of the rest of employees, it's just really SAD seeing how employees smile and act funny in public, but will say how they are doing lots of work trying to remake a poor product deemed to sink in a record time for no reward or decent salary when they allow an anonymous chat in company wide meetings (that's the reason why they don't allow the anonymous chat anymore or skip the true questions :) ) There were also literal braind**d employees that cheered the CEO when he was announcing the layoffs for being "transparent", that's the kind of level of brainwashing this company tries to do to its employees It's hard staying in a good mood while working for this company even if you try to, trust me Cheers to the employees who got the chance to join a better company, and also those who are still here but stand to their values and face against the company decissions and policies when they degrade the employees conditions and compensation In general, best advice is leaving as soon as you can to get paid decently for your work in another company, you will find lots of similar comments here

Great pay, tons of work.

Nice people to work with Good salary and benefits Can work fully remote

In a tricky moment with the recent merge of companies and multiple rounds of layoffs

- Pay is good and so are benefits

- Work is strenuous but uplifting

Great office locations and great sense of ‘in it together’ between most people Good internal systems. We’re all on MacBooks and have good software Pay is good and benefits competitive (at least in the US) Lots of travel opportunity for a lot of us

CEO is good but not all the exec team have the same respect, one exec specifically. She has made some big changes which haven’t gone down well. In sales, we have little time for internal support teams but even less with the way some of them are run. CTO and CFO are both leaving at the same time. CFO was great by all accounts and well respected. His departure seems to be a vote against the res of the exec team. There’s often a lot of hiring of friends from the c-suite which has benefits but it’s happened too much and means that some people are so protected they can do whatever they want, morals aside. Some execs have fired their direct reports and hired only people they know so some of my colleagues can’t see progression. Finance is probably the only exception. It’s a company of change. It will be financially successful, but it would be nice to enjoy the journey with a leadership we can trust and support. It’s close but a few people spoil it and people know they will be cut for speaking out.

Competitive salary, work/life balance, remote work

Layoffs, lack of clarity from leadership

It had a decent pay

Getting tests is very competitive
