Pluspunten

The products are really good and the employees really care about helping customers solve everyday problems. The work environment is pretty relaxed for the most part.

Minpunten

Since the divestiture from Dell it's been pretty rocky. Quest Software was originally a separate company before Dell acquired them. It was always great working for Quest and not much changed after Dell acquired us. A venture capital company acquired Quest from Dell in 2016. Ever since the split from Dell it's went downhill. There were major cost cuts with layoffs and many talented employees simply quit. Quest has been stripped down and the resources are vastly limited. The current management team has no plan in place to fix anything. Their hands are completely tied by the new owners of Quest. It's quite sad really. Quest used to be a great company to work for but now it's ran very poorly and their is no direction or vision. If you are considering working for Quest I recommend checking elsewhere. Quest is no longer a company that you can call a career.

As a former employee, you probably heard the rationale for reductions that took place post divestiture. And I don't disagree that it has been a tough transition in many parts of the company. However to state categorically that the management team has no plans in place to fix anything is simply inaccurate. From payroll to expense reimbursement to sales comp to facilities management, we have extensive work streams in place whose sole purpose is to solve post-divestiture problems. I would love to talk with you further about your observations and invite you to contact me at luann.johnson@quest.com LuAnn

Pluspunten

Quest Software is a great place to work. The people are genuinely good people, very knowledgeable, and always willing to help. Quest is a strong environment if you enjoy solving complex technical problems, working with experienced teams, and helping customers address real business and security challenges. The company has a deep portfolio, talented employees, and many opportunities to collaborate across sales, presales, product management, engineering, and customer-facing teams. I also appreciate the flexibility, the trust given to senior employees, and the ability to contribute strategically beyond a narrow job description.

Minpunten

Like many large technology organizations, processes can sometimes be complex, and internal alignment across teams may take time. There are also opportunities to improve enablement, communication, and consistency around product packaging, roadmap visibility, and internal workflows.
