Pros

Love working with outcome-oriented team, not nearly as much internal politicking as some of the other places I've worked. AWESOME product that people easily fall in love with.

Cons

The company is clearly maturing from startup phase, and the grumbling from early Tabloids that "things used to be better" ignores the fact that there are plenty of good people here who are excited about working on the next phase of the company's growth.

Pros

- Values-driven company - Genuine care for employees' well-being - Salesforce benefits and market reach - Great executive leadership (EVP+) - Salaries above average - Office snacks are nice

Cons

I'm a member of the industries team (Healthcare, Public Sector, Retail), so I can't speak to the rest of the commercial org, but this is what I experience: - Hostile, defensive, disorganized, inexperienced leadership - Most sales managers/middle management have little to no sales or industry-related experience and are severely under-qualified for their roles - Inability to streamline communication and reach consensus on prioritization, leading to a chaotic work environment - Distrust in reps shown through micromanagement and constant questioning - Complete lack of care for the customer -- on some occasions, we've blatantly been told to lie to customers - No attention given to rep development - Zero solicitation of rep feedback about management or the team as a whole

Pros

- THE PEOPLE. Tableau does a great job at hiring people who are great to work with and are dedicated to their jobs. - Benefits. Fantastic health insurance, ESPP program makes up for the lame 401(k) match, free food is a great perk. - Interesting product and industry, company is growing and doing well. - Very nice buildings and facilities.

Cons

- Lack of career growth. Be prepared to stay in the role you were hired to do. And if you are offered a promotion, you will be low-balled on the salary. - Pay. Expect to make 20% less than your peers in other companies. This used to get slightly evened out by stock grants, but those have gotten much less generous. - Parking is a huge pain.
