Pros

- Vanta is the true market leader with an insane product market fit (even in 2023 and the tech downturn) - Great place to make significant money if you put the hours - Great product velocity and strong EPD team that releases new integrations/features every week - Big shout out to our CEO who is super down to earth, very accessible and always willing to help.

Cons

- Poor work-life balance : impossible to be successful if you don't put the hours (hard to take days off if you want to hit your monthly quota) so get ready to work A LOT (and be stressed most of the time) - Career growth can be unclear, no one knows what needs to be done to go to the next level which can create a lot of frustration

Pros

Great salary, I work on a team that has excellent balance. I get recognized when I do good work.

Cons

Company has a big focus on AI, but not sure we’re all marching in the same direction and often doesn’t feel like a good use of resources.

Pros

* Remote-first culture with flexibility. * Competitive market-rate compensation.

Cons

* **Too many layers of management.** There are excessive management layers that often create bottlenecks and encourage micromanagement instead of empowering employees to better serve customers and build great products. * **Lack of investment in IC.** Many teams remain understaffed, resulting in consistently high workloads. Burnout is common, and employees are frequently expected to take on responsibilities well beyond their role and pay band without recognition. * **"Flexible PTO" doesn't feel truly flexible.** While the company advertises flexible PTO, in practice there appears to be an informal limit/fake. Taking around three weeks or more of PTO can draw leadership attention, and it can feel like using the benefit may negatively affect performance reviews, even when work expectations are met. This discourages employees from taking the time off they need to recharge.
