Pros

Customers love Alteryx Great success stories and a good name on the market You can make decent money Working with some seriously smart and passionate people Some of the recent changes were overdue and will make Alteryx better

Cons

The Alteryx Designer core product is old and the company is playing catch up to cloud technologies Top and middle management team has been swapped out at record pace and some replacements seem to have not been properly screened Some criticism and concerns about those changes have been brushed aside and a lot of employees seem alienated and some have left New hires I talked to are already concerned about the state of the company Share price plummeted, which may be because investors lost faith

Thanks for taking time to share your feedback, and for the thoughtful pro's you highlighted - I agree with you that our customer evangelism is top-notch (I was a customer myself, in fact!) and that the changes we've put in place from both a leadership and go to market perspective - as well as those Product changes going into place now - are critical for our company's next steps on this journey. Please keep the feedback coming and don't hesitate to reach out to me directly with any other feedback where you see actionable areas where we can improve! Thanks, David

Pros

-Strong technical talent and knowledgeable colleagues who genuinely know the analytics/data space -Product still has real technical depth and a loyal user base, but the move th AlteryxOne is causing renewal issues -Historically solid brand recognition in the data/analytics community

Cons

-Repeated rounds of layoffs have left remaining staff stretched thin and anxious about job security -Since the PE acquisition, decisions feel driven by short-term financial targets rather than product or people -Leadership has changed multiple times in a short window, with little continuity or clear long-term vision communicated downward Trust between employees and management has eroded — morale is low and turnover (voluntary and involuntary) has hollowed out institutional knowledge -Culture has shifted from collaborative to guarded; people are protecting themselves rather than working openly -Communication from leadership during restructuring has felt reactive rather than transparent
