Pros

Lunch on Fridays. Some great people work there, unfortunately the fantastic people there are either forced out or end up hating it there so much that they leave.

Cons

In an era where companies are hailed for their commitment to employee well-being and fostering a positive work environment, Reliaquest stands out as a glaring exception—a cautionary tale of corporate negligence and disregard for its most valuable asset: its employees. Instead of the promised land of professional growth and fulfillment, it resembles more of a nightmare, where employees are mere cogs in a malfunctioning machine, disposable at the whim of clueless leadership. Let's start with the leadership—or rather, the lack thereof. Instead of providing guidance, support, and inspiration, they remain more worried about social status, only to deliver soul-crushing directives without any semblance of empathy or understanding. But perhaps the most egregious offense perpetrated by Reliaquest is its blatant disregard for the well-being of its employees. Burnout is not just a possibility but an inevitability in this toxic environment, where unrealistic expectations and unreasonable workloads are the order of the day. Mental health? Forget about it. They tout “unlimited PTO” or “hybrid work structure”, but any mention of taking a sick day or working from home is met with thinly veiled skepticism and passive-aggressive comments about dedication and commitment. While most likely denying work from home requests anyways. In conclusion, working at Reliaquest is not just a job—it's a soul-sucking, morale-crushing ordeal that leaves one questioning their worth and sanity. If you value your mental health, professional growth, and overall well-being, run—don't walk—away from this corporate cesspool. Life is too short to waste it in the clutches of a company that sees its employees as nothing more than expendable commodities.

Thank you for the feedback. There certainly are great people who work here, we are selective in who we hire to make sure our people not only have the right technical skills but the right mindset so we can continue to be a high-performance organization. It's disappointing to hear that you did not feel supported. That's not the experience we want for any of our teammates. We invite you to reach out to feedback@reliaquest.com to share more so we can all get a little better.

Pros

ReliaQuest has been a phenomenal place to work. One of the biggest things that stands out is how much the company invests in people who are willing to grow. It’s rare to find a company that promotes Business Development Representatives within 10–12 months, but here, hard work and development truly get recognized. If you’re willing to make yourself uncomfortable, apply feedback, stay adaptable, help others, and keep the right mindset, it will pay off. Management sees that effort and rewards it. It’s definitely not an easy job, but nothing great comes easy. What I’ve learned here in about a year is honestly what I believe would have taken me 3–5 years to learn somewhere else. ReliaQuest sees high-potential employees and genuinely wants to invest in them.

Cons

The role can be challenging and fast-paced, so it requires a lot of adaptability and resilience. It’s not an easy environment, but that also creates strong growth opportunities. It's also because of the industry in general!

Pros

My time at ReliaQuest has been life-changing. From the moment you join, the company invests in your growth and development, helping you evolve into a high-performing professional and leader. Since joining RQ, I’ve felt consistently challenged in the best way, while also being fully supported in everything I set out to accomplish. One of the things that makes RQ so unique is the level of support available to help us grow, both personally and professionally. We have two full-time mental performance coaches who are always there to help us navigate challenges and overcome obstacles. They’ve also built a Leadership Foundations program for emerging leaders. After six months at RQ, once you’ve completed a mindset badge and demonstrated excellence in your role, you become eligible to join the program. It’s an incredible opportunity to accelerate your career and learn the fundamentals of what it means to be a strong leader for your team. What stands out most to me, though, is the people. Everyone here is high-performing and pushes you to be the best version of yourself while striving to get 1% better every day. As a company, we truly live out our values—being accountable, helpful, adaptable, and focused—and I believe the people here embody those values every day.

Cons

While the challenge of cybersecurity is what drew me to RQ and this industry, it can also be one of the more difficult aspects at times. To be a leader in AI-driven cybersecurity, you have to constantly adapt to the evolving needs of the market. With that comes change, both within the company and in the work itself, and success requires embracing those challenges rather than resisting them. It isn’t always easy, but with the people around you and the mission you’re working toward, no change or challenge feels impossible.
