Pros
My direct and most of the greater team are really good people. Tanium makes a point to hire good people. The insurance is competitive and the allowance on volunteer time is nice. I usually had the resources I needed to perform well. I do miss the team and the first years I experienced there were great.
Kontras
They are undergoing forever layoffs - mini and continuous since 2024 which makes the environment constantly stressful because you aren't sure who is next. Plus there is a lot org reorganization which also is part of the constant downsizing. I was laid off but it wasn't surprising given the signs proceeding the event. I was also high-performance, had received raises and bonuses, etc so it was most definitely not performance related but a matter of numbers since my role was outsourced to Poland. I also have witnessed a big culture shift, where it seems like bringing in former team members from other companies and focusing on male counterparts has become the trend. One leader in particular was behind the scenes trying to manipulate things and pit managers against one another, which was very unlike what I had experienced there previously. Finally, the RSU situation is a tax burden I didn't for see. Plus, they decided to deny them to people who didn't meet the RTO standard but didn't actually warn people this would happen which feels unethical.
