Poor career development

Business Outlook

Pros

* Great opportunities to work directly with product end users * Interesting code base

Cons

* Poor career development opportunities in engineering. There is a definite "in crowd" at the top of the engineering hierarchy and projects are staffed based on their opinions * Promotions are blatantly about who you know and how important your project is to product management, and not about contributions, skill, experience, or competence. "Standards" are bent or ignored frequently to promote some people while the goal posts are continually moved for others (often while still adding more and greater responsibility) * Engineering leadership has no clue where they are going from month to month. Strategies change often and there are multiple silos unknowingly working against each other because the different areas don't coordinate. Other times, office politics cause them to deliberately work against each other to impress the CTO * Engineering middle management is mostly useless. They are there to collect paychecks and make the CTO happy. A few are excellent and carry the load. Most teams are run by the senior and lead engineers. Managers and directors tend to fail upwards * Product management staff changes often and/or has no ability to guide engineering well, leaving engineering teams to figure out how to implement product strategy

Thank you for sharing your feedback, and for your service to Alteryx and to our customers in the time you were with us. I agree that one of the best parts of working here is the interaction that our Product and Engineering teams get to have directly with product end users. And with our introduction of Designer Cloud, the degree to which our products and solutions will be able to help even more customers and organizations tackle their toughest challenges will only increase. Thanks also for your thoughtful feedback on your experience when you were part of the Engineering team. Our new Chief Product Officer is already leveraging our company-wide Objectives and Key Results (OKR) process to ensure clarity of purpose and transparency across the organization overall. No matter the level or role, our core values of Accountability, Integrity and Empowerment (in particular) are some of the key guideposts by which Alteryx is running as we write the next chapter of our company's story. Thanks again for your feedback, and please keep in touch - our alumni make some of our very best hires if and when the timing is right again! Thanks, David
