Pros

- No set office days/in-office hours - Friendly people - Exposure to many projects, systems, processes, etc. Good resume builder.

Cons

- Very little in house promotions… unless you have a history/friendship with someone at the director level - Little transparency: never informed about new hires (find out only when something is urgently needed), constant org/department restructuring, ever-changing consultants/contractors/third parties, very high turnover, etc. - Lack of appreciation/feedback: assume no news is good news - Little to no support: no work life balance, asking for backup falls on deaf ears, pinged all hours of day/night. Quiet layoffs without talking to broader team about what the individual is working on. Management lets good people go leaving an already overworked team to deal with the fallout.

Benefits, give-back program, great lunches provided, and clean workspace

Cons

I entered HR a few years ago with genuine excitement, hoping to support people and make a positive impact. What I encountered instead was one of the most toxic and disheartening work environments I’ve ever experienced. The leadership team, particularly within TAM Leadership, operates with a chilling lack of empathy. These are highly manipulative individuals who prioritize their own image and advancement above everything else — including the well-being of their employees. They preach about protecting people while actively throwing them under the bus the moment it becomes convenient. Speaking up about unfair treatment or abuse is career suicide. The message is crystal clear: stay silent, or become the problem. The lack of psychological safety is staggering for a company that positions itself as a leader in cybersecurity. How can an organization claim to protect others when it fails so miserably at protecting its own people? I’ve built real, caring relationships with many employees here who are genuinely good people doing their best under immense pressure. Watching them suffer daily while leadership remains indifferent has been heartbreaking. If you value your mental health, your dignity, and a workplace that doesn’t slowly break your spirit — do not apply here. The declining stock performance and lack of employee engagement shouldn’t surprise anyone. When people are treated as disposable, performance inevitably suffers. This company may talk security, but there is zero security for your peace of mind or well-being once you walk through the door.
