It depends on the implementation country to country. If you follow articles on something like Yahoo finance, you can see there are multiple opinions. There's also the difference between fiscal policy and monetary policy. From the fiscal policy perspective, you'll see more government spending and likely debt. This could mean higher taxes in the future, maybe. Monetary policy is a little less straightforward they are trying to keep markets liquid with QE and balance inflation/deflation through various means.
