Pros

Meaningful experience and a chance to work in a fast-paced environment.

Cons

Lack of work-life balance because the work was too serious and we didn't have enough down time to recover and rest. It was always a jab jab jab punch kind of work and we didn't get to complain because we were too busy - until we got burn out!

Pros

Free food Friday That’s about it

Cons

Recruiting tells you they are taking COVID precautions which they are NOT. As previous poster stated multiple covid cases in each office weekly. Teams are overworked and short staffed. Recruiting can’t keep up with the demand let alone find good talent because they can read between the lines. CEO has multiple personalities- it’s like a box of chocolates you’ll never know what you’re going to get. It’s a mass exodus and these FAKE positive reviews are planted to try to bury the true ones. Get rid of all upper level management they are out of touch with the crisis going on. They offered a “happy hour” a few weeks ago where senior leadership drinks with the teams- incredibly irresponsible but your suppose to show. Jump off this sinking ship before you go down with it.

Sorry that you did not have a great experience. We are taking covid precautions of requiring masks in the office, limiting conference room capacity, maximized spacing between individuals and have added partitions in all cubicles. If you would like to speak further, contact me at any time at people@reliaquest.com.

Pros

Competitive pay. Solid product. Smart ground level and middle management employees who work hard and are good teammates to one another. Financially sound and well managed company from a cash perspective. Willing to move people around to new divisions even without experience if you’d like to try a new role.

Cons

While the product is truly superior and delivers, it’s a crowded market and it’s hard for customers to distinguish its value until they actually are a customer. With no ability to POV and actually “show it,” this makes it tricky for customers to delineate between all the FUD competitors throw at RQ. In terms of culture, the CEO’s personality will be what limits this company’s success. Being called on the carpet, publicly, is a norm and it’s driving a lot of strong people away. Employees with really good ideas at senior levels who have actually worked somewhere other than ReliaQuest are either afraid to speak up or most commonly have no autonomy to implement what would actually be a better way. If it’s not “The RQ Way” as they call it - forget it. Not only is there little diversity at the senior most and mid management levels but it makes it very hard to see diversity of opinions because of how he rules the C-Suite.

Thanks for your feedback. We agree that ReliaQuest's GreyMatter platform solves a unique problem in the cybersecurity industry and in many ways puts us in a category of our own. However, it's disappointing to hear your perspectives on our leadership and company mindset. ReliaQuest's success over more than a decade is due to our commitment to our people and to our company values: being accountable, helpful, adaptable and focused. We're always looking for ways to get a little bit better and welcome you to reach out to feedback@reliaquest.com so we can better understand your experience.
