Pros

Great office location, very friendly co-workers, decent benefits.

Cons

I recently left Quest for a much better paying technology sales job. They are currently holding my last pay check hostage, and have informed me it will take 3 months to be paid my final commission check. When I requested a call from someone in HR, I was completely ignored. This issue is really just the cherry on top of a terrible working experience at Quest. Honestly, do your self a favor and take any other job possible. You will be treated like an entry level employee. Expect to be micromanaged to sell an out dated, over priced software. They do not respect work life balance and during my time I saw reps fired for needing time off to attend doctors appointments and family responsibilities. If you do take a role at Quest, please be warned and also prepare to have your money held hostage.

Dear Former Employee, I'm so sorry to read your comments and would be happy to address some of these things with you via email if you prefer. On the subject of your commissions due, the sales terms and conditions document that you signed as a new employee described this process. A customer has 60 days to pay an invoice and commissions are not paid until a customer has paid Quest. I think you've been notified by our HR team that you will be paid on September 20th because your customer has paid their invoice. If there is anything else I can do to settle any of your issues, let me know. Best of luck in your new role. LuAnn CHRO

Pros

Nice building with a nice view and free coffee.

Cons

No chance to progress as a Tech Support engineer it is unnoticed position in the company Senior Tech leadership in Cork obviously shows lack of experience/knowledge but are promoted, regularly! Engineers are on the opposite side of that spectrum Did CEO have to go through an extensive background check as all of us? My fear is you guys forgot to do that
