Pros

- local IT teams and peers are nice people and easy to work with - pre COVID, Quest felt like a campus and was great for colloboration - decent health benefits - diversity & inclusion is valued

Cons

The pay is questionable and the yearly increases are pennies in the grand scheme. Work life balance is non existent. Expect to work on weekends or even on TOP to service issues. Management will also contact you on your personal phone. Overworked so much so expect to have a few burn outs over your time there. Stressful and pressuring work environment The lab runs the show (collectively the labs can be passive aggressive and unprofessional in terms of communication) and you don’t really have a voice compared to them. Basically be a yes-man. It can be exhausting when lab is always right, with rarely any push back on their requests. Prepared to be let go and outsourced for financial gain

Pros

Good pay and stable benefits

Cons

Toxic Corporate work culture makes staying hard. You get more work for little recognition, you have to fight with management to use your benefits. Fight for the use of vacation time.
