      Pros

      - Great, friendly people and culture - Nice work life balance - Lovely office space and amenities - Feels like Illumio is constantly growing/improving - Illumio's starting to pivot towards more data-driven approaches - Under-performers don't last long here as everyone contributes to our company goals - Hard work is rewarded and recognized

      Cons

      - Same stuff you run into in SaaS/tech/cyber start-ups - No quarterly or yearly review program put in place - Could benefit from more career development programs/opportunities (but, we did just hold an internship program and a hackathon—so those are nice) - Some red tape but to be expected with a large start-up

      Hi there and thanks so much for taking time to share your feedback - I'm glad to hear that the work that everyone across the company is putting in to build a culture where folks want to be is working! You're right that as we scale, we'll continue to take data-driven approaches to both strategy and execution across the business, and we'll support everyone to do their best work with clear goals and fair and balanced feedback (more to come on that front!) that helps us all grow and achieve together. Please keep the feedback coming, and don't hesitate to reach out directly to me or any of the People team for more ways that we can continue to improve as we scale! Thanks, David Chief People Officer

      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.

And thanks for sharing some of the perspectives on the pace of change; I agree that when you're growing and scaling like we are, it can feel fast - as a senior leadership team, we're committed to ensuring we do our best to communicate at the team, org and company level as often and as transparently as we can.
