Pros

The technology is really impressive and solves so many problems organizations have struggled with for years, as well as new challenges. The culture is also refreshing. Surrounded by people who care and are passionate about the team and technology. The TAM team is always innovating and providing the best solutions and support to customers; I learn a lot from my peers. You have the ability to take on a problem you are passionate about and be the solution. What you produce is recognized and appreciated. The people you would not want to work with because of their work ethic or attitude do not stay. It feels good to be a part of a winning team. I have also had really positive experience with senior leadership, including Orion and David. They are passionate about the company and they are really great leaders. It is not uncommon to have direct conversations with them.

Cons

The TAM role at Tanium is not for everybody. It is hard work and you wear many hats, but that has sat well with me. You have to figure out your own work/life balance, no one will tell you to stop working. However, I have found PTO and time away from the desk is respected. The team is always backing you up when necessary.

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.
