Toxic and Collapsed Culture

Sales

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Legacy products are still recognized in the market and have loyal customers. A handful of colleagues remain dedicated and supportive. Strong brand name recognition in certain software segments.

Cons

Culture has collapsed under new leadership. Micromanagement and a rigid “follow or leave” mentality drive every decision. Zero trust, finger-pointing, and constant turnover define the environment. Employees are not treated as people. Morale is at rock bottom. A lot of people seem disengaged or actively looking to leave, including many new hires who feel misled about the opportunity.

Pros

Remote work, generous matching 401k, decent benefits.

Cons

Terrible financial condition due to PE firm overpaying for it in 2022. New leadership team is terrible. CEO seems to be bringing in a lot of people he knows from his time at EMC 20 years ago. He has been adding a lot of layers of upper management and most people being brought in have job hopped every one to two years for the past 10-20 years (including the CEO who has a lot of short tenured positions on his resume). They haven’t really done anything to enhance the product portfolio, but they have spent a ton of money on outside consultants that are probably friends of the CEO. Also spent a ton of money on a new logo and using a lot of AI catch phrases.

Pros

I originally was hired by OneLogin -- and that was a wonderful experience. But then, Quest acquired us and it has gone downhill in every way imaginably.

Cons

Quest has no clue what is going on. No transparency. A lot of heads in the sand...
