Pros

I am continually impressed by how well myself and my colleagues are treated at Tanium. At my former company, I was used to upper leadership pushing back on change and employee feedback falling on deaf ears. Here, leadership proactively makes decisions that benefit us without us even needing to ask for it! For example: announcing our annual bonus would be absorbed into base salary, and encouraging us to expense meals if working through lunch or into the evenings when the Log4j vulnerability hit. That is on top of the already generous compensation and benefits. I am trusted to do my work well in the ways that work best for me and my customers. I have a lot of autonomy and flexibility in how, when, and where I do my work. I don't waste time on a lot of meetings or random standardized tasks (like everyone needs to do XYZ with their customer), which helps me have a better work-life balance and spend my time on more interesting work. I typically work around 40h a week and am encouraged to leverage the unlimited vacation policy. The team is great - lots of smart people with diverse career backgrounds always jumping in and help each other. I've enjoyed getting to learn about a lot of different areas within IT and expand my skillset. All in all, I am consistently valued and respected here and am thankful to be a part of the team.

Cons

Nothing egregious, but a heightened day-to-day focus on diversity and inclusion would be beneficial as we continue to grow and increase diversity on the team. We have received education and I am confident everyone is well-intentioned, just perhaps need a bit more practice and awareness.

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.
