Pros

The product is amazing. It is a step above anything that claims to be similar. Growing company, with expanding prospects Good compensation Dedicated workforce. Some of the brightest people I have worked with in my career Employees believe in the product and the company, and support each other. Everyone wants to do better and make the product better. Employees want to do what is right for the customer. Management, including senior management, has their head on straight. Managers listen when you point out problems. Senior management has a vision for where they need to change, they value the people that support their product, and they listen to their employees. Privately held company can do the right thing and not just do what will make the stock rise this quarter.

Cons

Product is both broad and deep and is a lot to learn. Employees suffering from imposter syndrome is a common issue. You handle front line cases. Sometimes there is great pressure to resolve issues quickly. Nights and weekend work is usual - if you aren't supporting customers, you are catching up on what couldn't get done during working hours. Getting officially qualified to support the product is a long process.

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.
