Pros

Vanta is one of those companies that you just can't believe is real. Our product has an extremely high market fit, our leadership is kind and transparent and each and every employee who works here is also just as outstanding and intelligent. This is by far the best company I have worked for and it's really all about the product that we've created, our excellent customer base and a team of people who are not only committed to security but, are interested in producing their best work here at Vanta. Our CEO is top-notch, I’d follow her into a burning building and that sounds extreme but, that’s how much I trust her. She really does have the company as a whole at heart when she makes decisions and it shows. The company also really cares about a solid work/life balance. We have been given wellness stipends, are encouraged to take time off and we have little events throughout the month so that we can also find time to relax and recharge (cooking classes, yoga classes etc.) I also love my team, my boss is one of my favorite bosses I’ve had to date and I really appreciate her ability to support me here at Vanta and beyond. Her investment in my growth as a person and employee really makes me feel like I’m valued and not just another cog in the wheel. Also - we have a llama as our mascot, what more could you ask for?

Cons

None really! I usually am very critical of startups but, Vanta has changed that for me!

Pros

Great salary, I work on a team that has excellent balance. I get recognized when I do good work.

Cons

Company has a big focus on AI, but not sure we’re all marching in the same direction and often doesn’t feel like a good use of resources.

Pros

Good pay and benefits, decent work life balance

Cons

This place is incredibly dysfunctional. Every day feels draining. Toxic and rude coworkers, immature leadership, incompetent and ineffective management, inefficient processes... it's nearly impossible to get anything done without multiple layers of review and endless rounds of revisions. The bureaucracy is exhausting. Decisions are made in siloes and often walked back because they weren’t thought through properly to begin with. Information is shared selectively and you will often learn of things “through the grapevine”. Priorities, goals, metrics are nowhere to be found. There's little sense of culture and very little to no focus on employee experience, DEI, or anything beyond the bottom line. Many people come across as disengaged, transactional, and self-interested. Development opportunities are limited, and career and compensation growth are slow even for strong performers. Office politics are prevalent, employee concerns are rarely acted on, and meaningful feedback is rarely given or asked for. There is an overwhelming focus on AI, often without consideration of resource usage, output quality, or security implications, which is surprising given the industry. Usage is duplicative, disconnected, and directionless. I've honestly never felt less connected to my work. At some point, I found myself emotionally checking out just to preserve my own well-being.
