Pros

Employee stock participation plan let's employees literally invest in the success of the organization. The company puts a strong emphasis on mindset and mental strength with a team of mental conditioning coaches who strive to ensure the team is working from a positive growth mindset. Great benefits from low-cost medical, with discounts available, an HSA that RQ contributes $1000 a year towards (!), free employee dental, and free employee + family vision coverage. 401(k) matching at 50 cents on the dollar up to 8%, with both standard and Roth contribution options available. Together events to encourage camaraderie and team building, that always end up the talk of the office and annual traditions (like the Rock, Paper, Scissors tournament) to get everyone excited to get together. Pay bands for the roles and annual reviews/merit increases are generous for the industry. State of the art facilities, including a brand new anchor/HQ office in Tampa's newest Water Street district. The focus on recruiting is strong, with the goal of ensuring the caliber of team members meets the needs and goals of the organization, so you're surrounded with like-minded, driven individuals, bringing diverse opinions and experiences to the table. The organization places a huge emphasis on the customer experience and trust, while understanding that a positive employee experience helps drive that. Constantly innovating and adapting is what RQ does best. Quarterly recognitions/award ceremonies for people who go above and beyond to make teams feel seen and appreciated.

Cons

In the tech and cybersecurity industry, it's increasingly unusual to see fully in-office positions, like RQ requires. I personally prefer an in-office position, and my commute is not bad, so I'm not overly bothered by this, but it has been a topic of discussion amongst my colleagues. Communication can sometimes be difficult across a global organization, especially as we continue to grow and work on scalability. Our bi-annual planning events let the organization know our goal for the years, and check in on their status, but smaller messages, or company-wide participation in messaging, can sometime be difficult to achieve.

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.
