Pros

Vanta is currently experiencing hypergrowth. During this period, I've really had the opportunity to run with projects and help make changes within the organization as we scale up. In addition, the teams are really well-connected. Cross-collaboration is big here + I can actually call my coworkers friends and really just be myself!

Cons

Overall, nothing major. For a while, our hours were pretty long. However, we've more than doubled the Customer Experience team which has really helped with the workload.

Pros

Really closer to 4.5 stars. - Meaningful problem: Vanta is working on making security dead-simple to prove and continuously verify. This solves a real need for businesses, and has great potential for good. - Breadth of opportunity: Management encourages employees to work on what they find interesting. That coupled with our small size and variety of problems gives a large opportunity for learning and growth. In the time I've been here, I've worked on nearly every part of the site. I've built processes and driven projects both in and out of engineering. If you want to learn about all aspects of a business, this is the place to be. - Rocket ship: Vanta's hit product-market fit. It's profitable. And it's growing exponentially. That's very rare among companies of this size, and it's an exhilarating opportunity. - People: The team is kind, passionate, talented, and receptive to feedback. - Work-life balance: We're a startup, so there's always tons of work to do. That being said, management is sensitive to these challenges and respectful of employee time - on the occasions when workload becomes too heavy, the attitude is "how can we design better processes/resourcing to make sure this doesn't happen again?", rather than ignoring it.

Cons

- Scaling challenges: Rapid growth forces us to reinvent our processes day-to-day. Vanta is doing this well, but it does cause some chaos! - Focus: Since Vanta has so much to do - and so much breadth of work - it can be challenging as an IC to make space for long-term problems or projects. This isn't insurmountable, but requires special attention. - Scaling culture: Tripling in size remotely during COVID-19 has presented unique challenges to maintaining our early culture. Leadership has done a good job preserving Vanta's core, but it requires deliberate investment to keep the team communicating as smoothly and thoughtfully as we did before, and Vanta is only just starting to build that muscle.

Pros

- Culture: The people at Vanta are incredible. It's apparent that the passion and ambition across teams are all aligned towards a common goal. The personalities during the interview process translated into the day-to-day grind - authenticity at their finest. - Product: Incredibly high value in space yet to be conquered, and continual improvements are being made to continue being a differentiator in the security space. - Leadership: Leadership and management are always important to consider when interviewing. Transparency, support, and guidance are all evident across the top. We all want to succeed, and our leadership has always provided the tools for success. - Work/life balance: Especially during the pandemic, it can be difficult to find an organization that truly respects balancing work and life. Vanta understands that we all have busy lives and ensures we are taking the time off when needed.

Cons

- None: If you are ambitious and put in the time to learn the security space, you will be successful.
