Tanium Senior Software Developer reviews

The CEO flip-flops constantly on what he considers important to focus. For example, Tanium was poised to take over the security space, they had even hired a bunch of subject matter experts, but then it was decided that the direction was going to go in a totally different direction. There is also a fear of getting on the CEO's bad side for fear of retaliation. Some of the higher ups try to make you feel bad for expenses incurred during mandatory company get-togethers. I've never been at a place that treats you like a child with respect to expenses. There are of course limits, and rightfully so, but to make you feel bad because you almost got to that limit or you didn't car share because there wasn't going to be someone at the airport for another 2 hours after your flight arrived is ludicrous. For a company that's doing well, it seems strange to try to make you feel grateful for them allowing you to expense something. The hiring process is painful. It takes forever to hire people and the really good ones often get tired of the process and leave the pipeline before they can complete it.

Product iterates rapidly, might throw away lots of code. Still a good learning experience, and change and improvement is for the sake of the users.
