Pros

- Amazing Product that solves a major problem in the enterprise - Great team and collaboration. Everyone is willing to help anyway they can - The most impressive customer service organization I've interacted with. The focus on the customer being successful is priority #1 - Mgmt is open to ideas and encourage you to think outside the box - Fast growth organization with plenty of funding for success - The hiring process was the best I've ever experienced. Communicated well, formal process and always kept me in the loop throughout the entire process - Competitive Compensation Package - Exciting Opportunity

Cons

- With a new category / solution like illumio, finding the right marketing message is always a challenge with a company this stage. - Processes have been changing but that is expected with a company at this stage - There isn't a 401K match program yet

Wow, thank you very much for taking time to post your review and for this great feedback. I appreciate (and agree with) your advice on what it takes to build a great company -- hire great people, build a great product, take good care of your customers and partners, and execute well and consistently. I also appreciate your observation that in any new technology category finding the right message is an iterative process. That’s certainly true in our case. It seems to me we’re making good progress on that of late but please keep giving us input and feedback. Thanks!

Pros

Transparent, open culture – Illumio emphasizes honesty and direct communication, even on tough topics Recognition-driven environment – wins are celebrated across teams and employees are recognized by peers and leadership Collaborative + partnership mindset – teams operate with accountability and strong cross-functional alignment Inclusive and diverse workplace – strong emphasis on belonging, varied backgrounds, and different perspectives

Cons

High standards, accountability, and pressure to perform Not necessarily negative—but can feel intense depending on the team/role. Change happens often if you don't like change you will not like it here. I love change and I love that we are always trying to improve or be better. 401(k) plan without company matching- this is normal for our stage and employee count but candidates mention this alot. I wanted to flag it. They do give us a retirement savings account and mine is doing well but no match.
