Pros

There are some absolutely brilliant and smart people, unfortunately most are managed by those who would struggle to find their way out of a wet paper bag. The product itself is great, has some excellent features and ability but it has some flaws that need fixing, and fixing is not on the agenda.

Cons

The workload is through the roof and the expectation is that you'll keep working until you drop or leave in a box. The management team is not prepared to listen or discuss suggestions, even when presented with data. The typical response is that their view is very different, everything is great, and they'll keep doing what they're doing.

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.
