Yes, it is safe to use Tor if you're on the same network with other people. In fact, Tor is one of the best tools to use when you're using a public network/wifi (i.e in your favorite coffee-shop). And no, it doesn't compromise your Tor usage and security.

What is the security risk of Tor?
Tor provides more anonymity than a regular web browser by passing your web traffic through three layers of encryption. However, Tor is not completely secure. Using it can put you at risk of data leaks, spying, and man-in-the-middle attacks via malicious exit nodes.
How does Tor protect anonymity?
Tor provides this anonymity by routing communications through several intermediary proxies, other nodes operating in the network, before the traffic reaches an endpoint and is delivered to its final destination.
How does Tor provide confidentiality?
The Tor network is a secure, encrypted protocol that can ensure privacy for data and communications on the web. Short for the Onion Routing project, the system uses a series of layered nodes to hide IP addresses, online data, and browsing history.
What is Tor in organization?
Tor stands for “The Onion Router” and it is called so because it is using the Onion routing protocol to conceal information about user activity, location and usage from anyone conducting network surveillance traffic analysis.
