No room to grow in any way

Senior sales specialist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Nice office. Casual attire. WFH a few days a week.

Cons

Not paid enough at all. No room to grow or move up. No way of getting paid more, ever. Ok with other horrible employees. No appreciation for hard work. Perfect if you are into complacency and no growth.

Quest Software Response

We appreciate your long tenure with Quest. As a sales specialist, you have the perfect opportunity to get paid more by way of your commission plan. There are also other special earning opportunities this quarter so that Quest can get off to a fast start. In terms of career growth, you may be at the top of your career ladder but that's certainly not the case for everyone. We promoted a large number of sales makers during our most recent pay planning cycle and our sales leaders work hard to maintain a career path for everyone. I'd like to help you and would invite you to reach out to me directly via company email. LuAnn CHRO

Pros

Managers give you free reign to learn and assist customers for successful demos/trials. Kace solutions are also loved by many fans/customers and always exciting to see new features added.

Cons

Quest as a whole let’s the best or more expensive talent leave amd hire cheap replacements to appease Francisco Partners.

Quest Software Response

Thank you for your feedback, both positive and negative. I'm a big fan of KACE as well and are looking at what we can improve internally by using some of the solutions. Best of luck in your new role LuAnn CHRO
