Pros

Great culture! They truly care about people. I've never felt so valued and respected here. They take very good care of their people. Great pay, great benefits, great equity and great people. Very strong work/life balance. Employees genuinely want to help each other out. "One team one fight" is Tanium's mantra. And it comes from the very top of the company. And if that's not enough, they have a rock solid product and continue to develop it. Financially they are about as solid as you get - very well run company. I've worked for 6 other tech companies in my career and this one is definitely the best. This IS the company you are looking for.

Cons

Only downside is from a sales perspective - sales cycles can be long.

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.
