Pros

The people I worked with on a day-to-day basis were some of the most professional and inspiring co-workers I have ever had. There was a true sense of team and everyone working to the same goal.

Cons

The harsh economy has made Quest Software a difficult place to work if you don't live in California. Communication out of corporate was sparse and often just rumors; people will make stuff up if they aren't given direction. Pressure at the top to increase performance works downhill. Forced-vacations with little notice to employees does not encourage loyalty to a workforce already trying to do more with less.

Pros

People are nice in general. Work time can be flexible if you are in R&D. West Coast casual, but IT best-in-class organization. It would be good if you are engineers.

Cons

Company keep buying small software companies; often organization change. Integration after the company purchase seems to be challenging to senior management; it is like different small companies among different product teams. The limit of number of vacation days is lower than average. Stock option availability to engineers (even if senior developers) seem to be limited.
