Pros

Great flex hours, let you work remote from home. Have fruit as a perk and a kourig coffee machine.

Cons

Some managers are inept and even abusive but because upper management is so disconnected, the status quo continues. This company could easily be a $3billion firm but there is a lack of leadership at the top and competing priorities that pit departments against each other for resources. This internal competition hurts the entire company.

Pros

Casual work environment free coffee, tea and fruit

Cons

They do not promote within. Applying for jobs via the internal Quest website is of zero use since the recruiters are only incentivized to hire "non quest" employees (and yes apparently that includes contract workers). So the recruiters simply throw your application away if your applying via the internal site. It's very frustrating and took me six months to figure this out after applying for a job several times before going directly to the hiring managers of which they had no clue about my interest or ever seen my resume.

Pros

Tech support teams are very easy to work with and competent. The management I've worked with actually seems to care about their employees

Cons

You can get stagnant in your role. Too little attrition at the upper levels leaves little room for promotions and movement.
