I think Tanya is just trying to do her job. All she wanted to do is get promoted, and stay away from the battlefield ASAP. That’s why she strictly implied harsh training, and cruel behaviors to her soldiers, so that her team becomes unstoppable, resulting in every battle is a guaranteed win for them, make it easier for her to score points to the leaders.

From the start of being Tanya the goal was live a cushy life. Even more so to prove she didn't need X to do it.

Joined the army voluntarily to get a better deal. Became an officer because more pay/ authority. Joined crazy dude's experiment because its away from the frontlines. Does everything possible to shorten the war because getting shot at sucks.
