Pros

good people and a recognized need to innovate

Cons

years of underinvestment in solutions while under Dell, followed by wholesale replacement of senior leadership by former Attachmate alumni post divestiture, devolved one of the most successful independent software vendors into spare parts.

Thank you for taking the time to post a review. Our leadership team believes that everything that made Quest successful in the past is still part of the business today. While we can't make up for what you categorize as years of underinvestment in six months, there has been significant foundational work done already that better positions Quest for success. I hope that you will watch Quest from afar and that you will begin to notice these changes. Good luck in your new role LuAnn

Pros

The new ELT has been making a lot of changes to shift Quest to newer products, focus, and GTM strategies. This has been much needed, and the future looks much brighter. Regardless of the changes, the culture of respect and inclusivity and people-support has remained. I would refer Quest as an employer, especially the Legal department, to anyone I know.

Cons

As with any period of changes and redirected focus, there has been some turmoil in reductions, tool/platform changes, etc. This would be a tough environment for anyone who has trouble adapting.
