High turnover, high stress, nonexistent career growth, heavy micromanagement - Recensione dipendente - Marketing presso Vanta

Vanta is a churn-and-burn environment with consistently high turnover. Annual raises don’t come close to keeping up with inflation, and promotions are effectively impossible with unclear expectations around what it actually takes to advance. There are no upward career path for employees. There’s a strong culture of blame. When things go well, the manager who micromanaged your project will take credit, but when things go wrong, it quickly becomes only your responsibility. At the same time, roles and ownership are often unclear, which makes accountability feel extremely inconsistent and frustrating. For a company at this stage, that lack of clarity is surprising. Leadership feels disconnected from the day-to-day realities of the work while still heavily micromanaging. It makes it difficult to feel trusted. A large number of employees are placed on PIPs, which creates an underlying sense of stress and instability combined with low morale across teams. Work-life balance is a major issue. Late nights and weekend work are the norm, not the exception. It used to be a great place to work, but the culture has shifted quickly in a negative direction, and the trajectory does not feel like it’s improving.
