Enjoyed working there, often chaotic
Apr 21, 2022 - Business Analyst in Apple Valley, MNRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Some great coworkers. Location worked well for me. My manager was very supportive, approachable, and led a great team.
Cons
Often spent time waiting on other teams that couldn't deliver on time or accurately, or both. Due to the industry, peak times of year were really peak & a good amount of unpaid overtime. Upper management was somewhat disconnected - either that had great assessment industry knowledge, but little technical aptitude, or they had competent skills, but little understanding of the industry or vision.

Great teamwork; Needs stronger leadership
Sep 26, 2021 - Quality Assurance in Minneapolis, MNRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Questar has some of the best people in the industry that I’ve ever worked for. It’s a wonderful team; and everyone is always willing to help. People will go the extra mile to help others or for the success of the product.
Cons
Questar’s leadership does not have a Clear vision, or if it does, that is not communicated to staff. The technology group is understaffed and needs funding and resources to develop the tools that will allow the company to win more contracts. There is not much room for promotions.
