Pros

Tanium’s Core is a rarity in enterprise software providing solutions to some of the most complex security, compliance and infrastructure management challenges. There are really smart people here and the conviction on the solution is well founded.

Cons

The company has been through multiple shifts in market identity. The leadership made poor decisions that would didnt keep Crowdstrike, Armis, Wiz, Dazz and many others from gaining traction. The metrics aren’t good if you dig in. turn over is high, attainment per rep, region, area is sporadic and low. There is a strange mask over the good ol boy network that actually runs this company. The older school attitude of, “the beatings will continue with my until performance improves” will continue to stymie growth.

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.
