Pros

- Product market fit, seems to be a competitive contender in this market with a decent future. - Cross collaboration with team members and other departments - Benefits are pretty good and it's obvious there are some high quality people trying really hard to keep things successful

Cons

- Little to no support whatsoever from C-Staff, who seem to be too busy with their own egos to acknowledge the teams need for support - HR team is clearly burned out- no HR leader due to ridiculous turnover in the last 6 months. Team members who used to be reliable and attentive now totally checked out. HR Business partners clearly focused on impressing C levels and couldn't care less about issues brought to them, also completely unresponsive and neglectful of follow-up. - Finance team is bleeding and support teams like IT are clearly drained and grasping at straws. So we get more funding and "it's all about growth" but the people in charge of the money and culture and dropping like flies? - Push for return to office and focus on "going back to normal" feels ridiculous. No regard for the remote workforce and all that seems to matter is C levels getting what they want over what the employees need.

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.
