Pros

Great upside for our business. Amazing technology. Potential IPO or Acquisition in our future. Private RSUs that you can actually cash in on. Great culture, and passionate leadership. Many roles are now 100% work-from-home. Home office stipend. People across the organization are so helpful. Unlimited PTO. The pay is slightly above average. 10th highest-valued US unicorn as of Oct 2020.

Cons

As most start ups go, you'll often work a little more than 40 hours a week - but most managers are accommodating if you have important family or medical appointments during the week. The Health Benefits aren't the best, but they are one of the best I've seen for a private company. The sales force is still prominently white males (such is tech sales) - but the company is working on it, and the sales folks are all very kind and respectful.

Pros

Loving Tanium so far! The people here are truly passionate about this company. Tanium is much different than the large organizations I have come from - I feel like a member of the family instead of a number on a page. The training here is superb. All new hires are enrolled in a two-month, comprehensive training program where we are given all of the tools and information we need to learn the technology and value proposition of Tanium. Speaking of technology - Tanium is an extraordinarily capable tool that is taking off, and I see Tanium being successful long into the future. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, Tanium has continued to grow (by personnel and revenue). We are ramping up to have our best quarter ever in Q4 2020. Tanium has fantastic compensation and benefits. I received an offer that would have been extremely difficult to turn down.

Cons

Unknown future of the company - could be purchased, could IPO, could stay private. Not necessarily a con, just something to consider.

Pros

A company with an amazing collaborative culture, great compensation, and built around a revolutionary technology, with a key focus on empathy (internal and external) and pushing boundaries. The company offers a large amount of flexibility to it's employee's, be that adjusting schedules to better load balance your work and life. Giving you freedom to engage in special (passion) projects and interests that improve the lives of our customers and employees. Similarly, allowed time allocation for investment into our local communities. The employee base largely consists of "smartest person in the room" figures from all over multiple industries, leaving a wealth of accessible knowledge to all new comers to the organization. I do want to be clear though, that even with a laundry list of bragging rights that a lot of our employees have, in my time here, I've never observed anyone lording that over others and quite frankly, it wouldn't be tolerated. Humility, intelligence, teamwork, empathy, and passionate tend to be the most common attributes of the average Tanium employee. We aim to do the right thing, even if it's hard. Finally, our leadership team. That may be weird to read, but it's true. I cannot count the number of times as we've grown, I've seen things introduced that smack of some necessary process that we've all seen poorly executed in our previous careers. When that occurs a lot of us reflexively respond negatively (growing pains, we're human too). In and through all of that, I've never seen David or Orion let any of those changes happen at a cost to the employee or culture (even if that meant they personally took the hit, or in a few cases took the decision back to rework it). This is not limited to just David and Orion, but to the entirety of our leadership team. You will be valued and protected to the best of their ability, and I know that through years of personal experience here, and that's not merely reserved for a select few either.

Cons

Tanium is growing, and with that comes growing pains; couple that with market demand that has at times placed us in a leaner state than I would be prefer. Freedom coupled with driven intelligent people often means individual over-extension. This is less of a Tanium problem, and more of an issue with self governance and time management, but are the only real cons I can think of.
