Pros

Uhhhhhh...... I can't think of anything...

Cons

New owners are destroying the company. No idea what they are doing. New management is just paying themselves big salaries while the business circles the drain. CEO is a convicted felon who never shows up, and has no vision. What a waste of $2B by Francisco and Elliott. Maybe they are the fools...

Quest is far from destroyed. We are releasing new products, continuing to provide exemplary service to customers and working hard to create the infrastructure that was necessary following the divestiture from Dell. Good luck in your new job search.

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.
