What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership Reviews

Lean in to the great corporate culture. We don't want to lose it. That said, we do not have a long term focused strategic vision to rally around that aligns all departments. Each department works independently. We could win in the market if we were aligned and working towards common goals.

Review from IT Dept

They need a progressive mindset.

Review from Sales Dept

They should not discriminate people, have clear objectives and better management.

Review from Marketing Dept

The leadership team is motivated almost entirely by chasing shiny objects in the hope that it will bump up the stock price. They are obsessed with their competitors, and the people who join our leadership team are rarely qualified to lead.

Review from Engineering Dept

There is lip service to certain values and commitments which is not always backed by anything concrete or in actual practice

Review from Marketing Dept

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Compensation Reviews

Fertility benefits, time off including birthday, professional development days, employee appreciation, medical benefits, professional development budgets and resourcing.

Review from HR Dept · Posted 16 days ago

the stocks we receive annually

Review from HR Dept · Posted 17 days ago

Stocks and bonuses are nice to have.

Review from Customer Support Dept · Posted 17 days ago

Equitable wages, stock, quarterly bonus

Review from HR Dept · Posted 17 days ago

Bonus & equity based on company performance

Review from Business Development Dept · Posted a day ago

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

I feel that my base salary could be a little bit higher. The benefits and RSU's make up for it.

Review from IT Dept

i have only received one small merit raise and I have been here 3 years.

Review from Marketing Dept

I made it to Platinum Club and have shown incredible work ethic, adaptability and resilience in my role. I feel as though I should be rewarded fairly to market conditions against my current Total OTE package...

Review from Sales Dept

A newcomer to the company started on the same base salary and I am his manager. I have been offered roles from other companies as an individual contributor with a larger base salary than I am currently on. Feels external candidates have a better chance of negotiating salary than existing employees

Review from Sales Dept

I feel that my compensation is below the industry average for my country and region. I raised it and got no feedback which was disappointing. I just want to be heard and I wasn't.

Review from Sales Dept

What are some of the best things about your team?

Team Reviews

We are all friends and you can count on each other to have your back

Review from Business Development Dept · Posted a day ago

Collaborative, fun, and always willing to pitch in

Review from HR Dept · Posted 15 days ago

They are smart and care about making an impact, as part of a team. And realize that this is a team sport.

Review from HR Dept · Posted 16 days ago

I can reach out with questions if needed.

Review from Customer Support Dept · Posted 17 days ago

friendly, smart, and they work hard

Review from HR Dept · Posted 17 days ago

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Team Reviews

more interest in their profession and eagerness to learn/understand their job and aspects it impacts

Review from HR Dept · Posted 17 days ago

I can't classify all coworkers in one category. Some coworkers are awesome to work with, I learn from them and work together to achieve success. Others do everything they can to bring you down and humiliate you so they feel bigger about themselves to the point I dread having interaction with them.

Review from Sales Dept

More frequent, informal gatherings (online and in person) would help our fully remote team relate to one another as people.

Review from Operations Dept

I work really well with my team. Rest of the departments are a bit detouched. Most of the people in my region has a finger pointing attitude. I think we should work on collaborating and helping each other instead of being antagonists.

Review from Sales Dept

Better responsiveness, no discrimination, better listening

Review from Marketing Dept

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Environment Reviews

One Tenable - we all truly care for each other and our customers

Review from Business Development Dept · Posted a day ago

most people are interested in participating in company wide events and helping out for a good cause

Review from HR Dept · Posted 17 days ago

You meet folks from all walks of life here.

Review from Customer Support Dept · Posted 17 days ago

the leadership cares about the culture and experience

Review from HR Dept · Posted 17 days ago

Everyone is united in a singular goal

Review from Design Dept · Posted 17 days ago

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Environment Reviews

More flexibility in the work-from-home policy. Paying out PTO to employees if they leave the company. The ability to travel for professional development. Merit performance needs to increase and is always significantly lower than inflation.

Review from Operations Dept

Overall, from a higher end it's awesome and I love it. Few points - Ensure that you have at least a person with core technical competencies when hiring for a specific role say performance. - It would be good practice to have an HR round that helps filter out unprofessional attitude or behaviour

Review from Engineering Dept

kindness, no discrimination, no superior tone

Review from Marketing Dept

less zoom more office. when people are physically close together they become more close in other levels which improve discussions and destination making

Review from Engineering Dept

There are certain toxic elements in the management and leadership change that need to be removed.

Review from Engineering Dept

What did you like most about the interview process?

Interviews Reviews

meeting the whole team I work for.

Review from Operations Dept

I liked how I was able to interview with every level of the team during the interview process. I was able to meet my coworkers, manager, and director before onboarding.

Review from Operations Dept

Transparency and very good communication and continuous feedback.

Review from Sales Dept

Fast and clear, I was informed of the steps and what to expect.

Review from HR Dept

All interviews were via video chat and did not require taking time off or travel.

Review from Legal Dept

What would you improve about your company's interview process?

Interviews Reviews

Streamline it. Get back to applicants quickly. Follow up with employers who do submit referrals, because I promise you when HR goes silent, they are asking that person.

More proactive updates from the hiring team would have made my experience a lot less stressful. There are always outside factors that can slow down an interview/hiring process, but if there are candidates that the company truly wants, that effort would go a long way.

Review from Customer Success Dept

What makes you most happy at work?

Outlook Reviews

being given the freedom and flexibility to do my job my way

Review from HR Dept · Posted 17 days ago

The ablity to work remotely a couple days a week.

Review from Customer Support Dept · Posted 17 days ago

Interacting with our customer base

Review from Design Dept · Posted 17 days ago

Seeing fellow co-workers. Probably silly, but theres a bit of camaraderie that is always appreciated in the workplace.

Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 17 days ago

Seeing the stock price go up. Helping others to succeed.

Review from Business Development Dept · Posted a day ago

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Outlook Reviews

New mindset. More flexibility. Culture of trust and support.

Review from Sales Dept

kindness, no discrimination, no superior tone

Review from Marketing Dept

Too much focus on growth without focusing on getting the fundamentals on solid footing that will better support that growth.

Review from Engineering Dept

Nowadays Tenable is driven entirely by the sales and marketing team. The people who least understand our products are making decisions they should not. Also these are very large teams now considering all the moving pieces in the products.

Review from Engineering Dept

The company needs to listen to feedback that it is being offered on a regular basis. Customers and employees alike have chosen to be extremely transparent in the best interest of the company and yet nothing changes.
