Pros

Great product, generally great people, and good interactions with customers.

Cons

Has turned into a very political environment. Lost its start up feel. Some people don't know what the heck they are doing and or don't know what they are suppose to be doing. The mentality without speaking is working the junk out of reps.

Pros

Great benefits, stock options (4 yr vesting), free food. Great product.

Cons

Very poor compensation/base pay. Opposite of transparent commission structure. Morale is very low. Management has no management experience, which is very prevalent when sales are slow, masked when sales are good.

Pros

Tableau has wonderful people who've built some really amazing products, and a very creative and caring fan base. There are some very interesting challenges at this time to work on as well. They pay decently well, and have good but not great benefits (i.e., Salesforce vs say Google, Facebook or Microsoft).

Cons

The Salesforce acquisition. SF is not creative and an online only business, Tableau is a desktop and server business with online extensions existing in a creative space. SF doesn't understand either context and will destructively copy Tableau into whatever it thinks Tableau should be. Until Salesforce finishes this process there will be a huge amount of chaos, ambiguity, and churn. People will leave at a high rate, context will drain and you'll have something completely new once complete. Luckily they've put into place a hiring freeze to spare new folks this experience.
