Highly dysfunctional

Pros

Some good people, decent work life balance.

Cons

Consistent layoffs, horrible management and false promises. Word on the street is that the 5th round of layoffs under the current CEO are on the horizon. Management asks employees to leave good reviews on Glass Door. Could make significantly more money doing the same job at any of their competitors. Would avoid at all costs.

Pros

Quest Software provides a highly professional environment where autonomy and expertise are deeply respected. The onboarding process is structured and supportive, making it easy for new joiners to settle in. There are plenty of opportunities to collaborate with global teams and work with industry-leading identity-centric security solutions.

Cons

The technical barrier to entry can be high due to the complexity of the products, requiring significant time and effort for initial learning. Additionally, working in a global company sometimes involves late-night or early-morning meetings due to time zone differences.

Pros

You get to work with some really massive, recognizable brands, which is great for the resume. The best part is the autonomy, management trusts you to run your accounts without breathing down your neck. It’s a solid place for people who like to "own" their work. Plus, the emphasis on actual strategy rather than just answering support tickets makes the day-to-day feel much more impactful.

Cons

The product list is huge, so it feels like you’re constantly learning something new. Which is addressed with several training avenues they offer.
