Pros

Alteryx Designer still loved by customers. Good salaries and great customers to work with.

Cons

The destruction of a very good company culture started September 2020 when the new CEO Mark Anderson was appointed. He changed many of the C-level executives including appointing the new CRO who is no longer with the company as of now. In his 6 weeks in this position Dean Darwin managed to demotivate and disgust many people. Eventually he was fired because of racist comments he left on Twitter and Linkedin. However, it took the company 1 week to make that decision and the CEO, his buddy from the past, even wanted to protect him. Other than that the company has introduced MEDDPICC as a sales methodology and is creating more and more metrics to micromanage its employees. PG call days are blocked and activities are tracked. And this is just the beginning... Many people were let go at the beginning of the year and many more to follow because they will not want to work in this depressing culture. The high turnover is accepted by senior management as they look to bring in people who would do what they want and how they want it. Alteryx core products are still on-premis despite us living in the year 2021. When I was hired a few years ago I was told that the customers didnt care too much about it. Now almost all companies have cloud strategies and Alteryx is failing to move into the cloud due to a very weak and slow software engineering team.

Thanks for taking time to share your feedback. While I'm sorry to hear that we as a company missed your expectations, I'm grateful for the time that you spent here at Alteryx during what I know were some critical years for the company. As with any change, we're focused on the road ahead and I'm confident with our new Chief Product Officer and Chief Revenue Officer who joined us this spring, the core elements of our leadership team's vision are in place and tracking in the right direction for the bright future we have. As I'm sure you're aware, the work ahead for us is responsive to the feedback we're hearing from our customers in terms of the ways in which they want to access our tools and solutions. While we'll continue to serve customers with world-class on-premise solutions, I'm excited for the introduction of our new and accretive solutions that make this a great time to be here. Thanks again for your service to Alteryx during your time with us, and wishing you all the best in what I hope is a great next chapter of your own career journey. Thanks, David

Pros

Great standalone product, customers run away with it. SE support is fantastic and unlike in many other companies. Due to lack of defined processes, Legal and Finance can be reasonably flexible and take a pragmatic view of doing deals.

Cons

Commission overhaul this year ensures company is making massive profits, whilst sales are being chased to do more for less. (US) management is slowly chipping away at moral which was good a couple of years back. Management is from different levels of experience and (some) have negative impact on performance / moral.
