Pros

Great work culture, amazing software, work/life balance is fabulous.

Cons

Leadership changes in FY20/FY21 have added some internal confusion. Annual compensation adjustment could use improvement.

Hi there and thanks especially for your headline - you're right that so many in our lives are our "chosen family," including our friends and colleagues with whom we work. And one of the positive elements of the past year's "now normal" way of work has been continued focus on ensuring our associates are getting to manage their work commitments and their personal lives in the way that works best for them. And even as our offices start to reopen around the world, our "virtual friendly" work policy I believe will continue to support and enable that focus. Thanks also for your feedback on our areas of focus - any time there are changes in leadership it can create information opportunities, and the leadership team and I are continuing to prioritize timeliness, candor and clarity. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me directly if you're willing to share more! Thanks, David

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
