Pros

Nice area, the neighborhood is all tech companies Sometimes the senior managers will come to the office and have a talk The company encourages people to innovate and apply for patents

Cons

Sometimes too chill to be productive, and the colleagues are mostly older than 40, which makes young people hard to fit in

Quest Software Response

Thank you for taking the time to post a review. I agree with you that the culture in the Aliso Viejo office is laid back but I don't equate that with a particular failing. I believe that diversity, whether it be age, gender, experience or something else, makes a richer workforce. I'm sorry that Quest wasn't a good fit for your at this time but I wish you luck in your next role. LuAnn

Pros

Good people, good compensation. However, I worked there when it was still part of Dell, so it could be quite different since the software division was sold to a holding company that chose to lay off a large chunk of the workforce on day one.

Cons

Health coverage was surprisingly mediocre for a worldwide company.
