Pros

Most of the people at Tanium are either very well educated, experienced and/or smart. Even with my 10+ years in different sales roles prior to joining if feel I’ve been learning at lot in the few months since I started and get the feeling that this is how it should be done. To me the company culture and the solution goes hand in hand to be an attractive place to work. The core technology and innovations that the platform stands on is extremely effective and ahead of the market since security breaches and possibilities with IT is more relevant than ever. I Truly believing that the solution can help a lot of companies in order to drive innovation with less complexity and costs of IT.

Cons

Tanium is still strangely not so well known even if 50+ of the global 100 companies is strategically using the solution. That is both a challenge and an opportunity in terms of creating sales. One of the core values for Tanium is winning as a team, I know a bunch of very very high skilled sales guys with very good track records that has not made the cut in terms of getting an offer to join. If you don’t fully buy in to the vision and higher strategy and be part of the team it can backfire.

Pros

I've worked in the IT industry for nearly 25 years and there has been a mix of the good bad and the bad, typically you are lucky if you score a hit of 1 in 3. Great Company, Great Product or Great People. It's the first time I've hit all three and it feels amazing. It's a grown up business, full of experienced professionals who don't need to be mollycoddled. The focus on the customer and our businesses is unmatched. The IT industry is full of companies that spend 2X their revenue to oversell or overmarket their lack lustre solutions and Tanium just doesn't have to. One customer I recently met said that the only limitation of the Tanium platform is their imagination. It's that good. > Modest > Focussed on Execution > Fast Paced with Delivery of new capability, every 90 days > The best people you will have EVER worked with > Hypergrowth and all the excitement and experience that comes with it > Extremely supportive investors, incl a16z who are unmatched when it comes to Fortune2000 relationships

Cons

Some might say that there aren't any, it's that good, but; > Frugality. The company has strict financial controls and there is very little tolerance for breaking them. > Decision making. As the company has grown the decisioning systems haven't kept pace. But it's being fixed.
