Great product, dysfunctional C-suite

Pros

Technology is fantastic. Designer is a great product. The offices are really nice and have tons of amenities. Some people maintain decent work life balance, some don't - it really depends on your manager.

Cons

Executive leadership is the biggest mess I've ever seen. The CMO is a literal robot of a human being with zero communication skills and an impossible micro-management leadership style. She manages two full departments for some reason and has way too many direct reports. Watching the SVPs all try to anticipate and accommodate her constantly changing opinions is hilarious. The CEO tried and failed to to convince the company he cares about DE&I. Company wide meetings addressing a racist c-level exec who was was fired within two weeks were a train wreck. No one expects tech companies to be all that socially aware but I've heard more sophisticated conversations about race and equity from children.

Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. I agree with you that our products and our offices are top notch, surpassed only by the people who make it all possible. With the new leadership team we have in place, we're charting the course to build on the strong foundation of the company, with an eye to the products and services that our customers will need to continue to thrive at the company and industry level. As you saw earlier this year, we introduced our refreshed core values, the central one of which is Equality. Our entire leadership team is committed to our culture and to the shared success of all of our people through a focus on diversity, equity and inclusion. Rooted in that commitment, we're focused on everyone's empowerment and alignment around our shared goals and objectives. Thanks again for your feedback - please don't hesitate to reach out directly as well. And thank you for what you've been contributing to our success to date during your time here at Alteryx!

Pros

The company and CEO cares about its workforce. Terrific benefits, time off, remote-friendly, good product, and wonderful leaders have joined the company in the last year. I believe Alteryx is going places.

Cons

None really that I can think of, aside from the Exec Admin Team, specifically the so-called senior EA Team. They are not women who support women, they cut strong women down, are toxic and attempt to rule with a chip on their shoulder, and withhold information from fellow EAs to make themselves feel in power and in control. Not Team players, or women who live the Alteryx values.

Pros

Alteryx has several big name customers, they have a couple of products that work well and that's about it.

Cons

I won't be long with my review, bc I have better things to do. My hope personal hope would be that I might persuade even one candidate to look elsewhere. Alteryx T-O-X-I-C! Starts with 80% of your colleagues who will be looking to tear you down and any other people they feel threatened by, the other 20% are just there for a paycheck. HR, of whom I will not mention any specific names, exemplifies incompetence. But they act as if they are coequals with Jesus himself. It is interesting to see the amount of reviews that refer to the culture as toxic and couldn't be more true. You will hear stories of things you'd only expect to hear on a lifetime movie. There have been dozens of great people who have left because management refuses to address the problems that pollute every organization in one way or another. But hey, let's continue to just hire people we know, it doesn't matter if they have the knowledge and leadership skills to perform the job. I would say 75% of the company comes from a handful of companies in the valley. Not because there is no other talent, but because candidates can see through the BS in their interview process and it leaves HR with no choice but to go find their friends from other companies. Which by the way it helps build out their clique. Once you join, be wary of the individuals who kissed your a - $ - $ to get you to join the company, only to become influencers of the rampant high school drama, backbiting, harassment and bullying.
