If you have worked at VCE or EMC 30 years ago, this might be the place for you
Pluspunten
There are still a lot of good people who are extremely loyal and would do great in any other company. Recruiters, this is a great place to go fish.
Minpunten
Once a great company, but now going down hard, drowning in debt, a new management team consisting of charlatans is making everyone believe we are quarters away from being the best company ever. In reality it's more likely this company will be cut into pieces by the PE to avoid losing face with their investors. The new CEO has read Frank Slootman's book (brings it up in every third conversation) and now thinks he is him; unfortunately, Quest got the Temu version. Brought his old buddy out of retirement to come in as CRO, fired him 12 months later, shifted all the blame for the incredibly toxic culture on him, washing his own hands, while he was clearly brought in to do the dirty work for him. All they do is bring in their old VCE/EMC buddies, all at the end of their careers, it's like a reunion. If you have a friends and family pass you can come and work at Quest any day now. To pay for that that, they push good people out with bullying tactics or with minimal severance. My advice for employees and customers: run for the hills, I know I did, its a sinking ship...
