Pros

Tanium is growing which will open the door for new opportunities and career development. I've been at several smaller start-ups that were very cliché in the tech scene and it was refreshing to come to Tanium where you still get the challenges of a start-up but with a more mature environment. Employees are smart, driven and passionate about succeeding. My manager trusts me to do my job and values my input. I feel respected in my role and I can truly say that I love coming to work every day. Benefits are competitive, catered lunches and snacks are a great perk, flexible vacation plan, and work-life balance is valued.

Cons

Nothing really that stands out. The only thing I would say is keep looking at our systems and processes as we grow to ensure we are scaling effectively.

Pros

I've worked for Tanium over 5 years and have seen a lot of change. The pace is fast and the teams are small so if you want autonomy and ownership this is a great place to work.

Cons

They're constantly reorging, it would be nice if the exec team could make up their mind on how they want the org structured and stick to it. They tend to do whatever other "hot" companies at the time are doing. The founder still plays a massive role and the c-suite just seem like his puppets. No one wants to be in office and ppl constantly complain but no one in leadership listens. It used to feel like they cared about what the employees say, but now everyone seems beaten down and just does the work so they're not laid off. Pay is also low compared to competitors. You have a decent annual salary but no bonus and no IPO in sight. You'll get RSUs but the price keeps going down with a promise to go back up. I've only seen it go down in my experience so just be mindful that whatever your base salary is (unless you're in sales) is going to be your total earnings.
