Pros

The product is solid and truly enhances the lives of our customers daily. Peer group in immediate team is smart and collaborative. There are some genuinely good people across the company. Great benefits, pay and perks. Good trainings, leaders and HR people accessible for mentoring and advice.

Cons

It’s evident to even the lowest levels of the company that our leadership is dysfunctional. I have never worked for a company where it’s so visible at my (pretty low) level of the company that the C-Suite isn’t on the same page. They seem to lack focus. Our CEO is a founder who is completely out of touch with the company. When he speaks at all hands meetings I wish I had a dollar for every eye roll I see - he comes across as a phony person who doesn’t care about the little people. He started an “Alter-Us” initiative focused on diversity. What is hypocritical is that he hired a new COO who is a white male without trying to get some diverse leadership. After hearing the COO introduce himself it’s obvious that the CEO didn’t do anything to find a diverse candidate. He just hired someone from his network who seems to not even have a real COO background. If the CEO really cared about diversity he would have found a diverse candidate with a real COO background. The COO even made a comment about getting out of Miami because he didn’t speak Spanish. It came across as derogatory. The environment is fear based and you’re always wondering if you will fall out of favor and get fired. CEO and his team seem to perpetuate that.

Pros

* Benefits are fully paid * Snacks * Beer fridge * Lots of great engineers

Cons

* New management from Pitney Bowes has changed the culture and doesn't listen to feedback or support employees. They have begun to run the engineering team like one at a large outdated company where employees are only a number and management rules top-down, rather than the innovative company that Alteryx wants to be. * There seems to be no concern with losing talent or employee retention * Complete lack of transparency from senior leadership in Engineering * Leadership plays favorites for promotions and ignores a lot of other talent * Leadership encourages non-favorite employees to avoid applying for promotions * Engineering teams are silo'd * If you speak your opinion in disagreement with upper management, it'll keep you from ever moving up within the company * Pay is often lower than industry average * Raises and salary increases for promotion are extremely low * Lack of concrete requirements for promotion or career advancement * Poor leadership and feedback skills * Difficulty releasing the product regularly and continued use of outdated languages/systems/processes without desire to change or improve
