Quest Software Compensation Employee Reviews

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Comparable or slightly higher with industry average

Flexibility between business and family time

Review from Sales Dept

The 401K match is a generous 5% and vests immediately. I also enjoy the Wellness Benefits, through which I can earn hundreds of dollars for simple activities like reaching my daily step goal.

Generous PTO and personal allowance.

The annual bonus is generous and fosters a strong pay-for-performance culture.

The health insurance and retirement savings

they pay for performance. there is no grey area in compensation schemes

The benefits are decent. The company could afford more but they are still growing, so there’s room for improvement.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

I have worked as hard as I can. They first reduced solutions I can sell, then they reduced customers and finally they doubled my quota. That not a fair treatment for such a long-term commitment.

Benefits are a joke. Leadership puts policies on paper and then only enforces them when it suites the company. Treat your employees like humans, not numbers in an excel sheet. Maybe some actual training or feedback instead of wasteful SKOs that marketing and c-suite think make an impact.

We are losing allot of people to other software companies who are paying much better than quest.

Review from Sales Dept

Due to the numerous sales of the company, they have averaged < 2% raises for the past 7 years. Even "top performers" are only getting 3% on good years but then nothing the next because of budget constraints.

On average (according to most web site data) people are paid between 12% and 17% less than the area average
