      This is more complicated than current leadership can handle

      Pros

      Quest has some good tools with strong positioning in the fortune 500. Company was going through some much needed transition and growth when new leadership was brought in.

      Cons

      New executive team is a complete mess. The whole pitch by the CEO and CRO was the fixes would be easy and quick. Their plan was to replace tenured employees and sales reps with their buddies that took orders at EMC or whatever other hardware company they came from which in turn would lead to quick wins. This is not the case - they've lost significant institutional knowledge, overspent on overstuffed leadership team, misdirected their focus, and overloaded reps with impossible to reach quotas. Quest has great customers and I fear the new set up will be worse for them than the previous compliance focus.

      Pros

      There is clear intent from leadership

      Cons

      Sales is now being done in region where sales engineer and account manager are expected on site and in region as much as possible. Sales people were given a chance to relocate, sales engineers were not - likely because some sales people said they would move and didn't.
