I have been working at Tenable full-time (More than a year)
Pros
The culture is one that pushes for continued learning & growth by encouraging attendance at a conference of your choosing each year and hosting internal sessions like a weekly blog club. This is one of the few companies embracing a highly distributed model, allowing many engineers to work from home. There is a high bar for passing the interview, so if you make it in, you'll be working with some smart folks who will challenge you to become a better engineer. Compensation and benefits are also quite good.
Cons
Tenable is a rapidly growing company, so be willing to accept change. As far as I can tell, management is great about helping in any way they can to help engineers with these changes and give them as much freedom as possible.
Application
The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Tenable (Columbia, MD) in January 2020.
Interview
I had the worst experience with interviewing with Tenable. I applied and it took about a week for a recruiter to get in touch to schedule an interview for the next week. The recruiter screen went well and the recruiter told me they’d put me in touch with the Hiring Manager via video chat. That took one week for scheduling and another to actually complete the interview. The HM was very nice and told me she would love for me to come in to meet the team after the holidays. And so after about three weeks the recruiter scheduled an in person for me to meet with a few key people on-site. These interviews went well and the HM literally all but gave me an offer letter. She told me I was the top candidate but they wanted her to keep looking at a few other resumes but she was sold on me. I didn’t hear back for a week and that was only because I reached out to the recruiter who told me they were waiting for feedback from the team. I followed up again the next week and was ghosted by the recruiter. About a month later, a different external recruiter reached out for the same opportunity to me on LinkedIn, to which I did not respond. A few days later, this same recruiter seemed to have Googled my work email from LinkedIn and emailed me at my current job to follow up to his message to which I responded that I had already been through the process with the team and was no longer interested. Fast forward to about a month, and they have reposted the job yet AGAIN. The job has been posted for about four months and I truly think they are super disorganized and confused about hiring. Very slow and waste of time. Would not work here!
