Pros

Cons
Everything Christina spouts on Linkedin regarding Vanta's mission and values is complete smoke and mirrors. She says she wants to make it the best place you've ever worked. She says things like customer obsessed. What she really means by everything is that she wants your life to completely revolve around Vanta and Vanta's customers. This mindset trickles down to management and the managers are in their positions because of politics and embrace that mentality. So if you don't, you will be let go. If a customer EVER has bad feedback, you WILL be blamed regardless of if the feedback makes sense or if it's clearly false. It could be a product shortcoming, and management will still blame you because it's your job to get the customer to love Vanta at all cost. The customer could outright lie and Vanta will be like CUSTOMER IS RIGHT NO MATTER WHAT. You will have zero support in terms of learning. You make one slight mistake and BOOM PIP and gone, even if you meet the goals on your PIP. We all know PIPs are just a formality but here, they'll say things like "oh we just want to outline clear expectations so you succeed and we want you to succeed". Then you hit all the goals outlined on the PIP and they'll say "sorry not enough"....ok??? if it wasn't enough why didn't you make those expectations clear on the PIP. Leadership is extremely hypocritical. Very toxic environment. My favorite thing was AEs trying to advertise and sell on reddit threads and getting banned and scolded by mods and still arguing it. Such a joke. This is what Christina means when she wants your life to be consumed with Vanta. Can you imagine going onto REDDIT threads to advertise your work product and getting mods to threaten to ban all things Vanta and yet still trying? It's clown behavior that they encourage. On top of that Christina has connections in the investor/startup world. Thats how the fundings happens and how she will always choose her CEO buddies over her own employees if they provide feedback or if the product doesn't perform, the employee will be the scapegoat. Think Elizabeth Holmes. Just avoid this place. You work to live, not live to work.
