Pros

Free lunches and snacks in the office

Cons

Unless you’re in the strategic sales teams you have very little chance of success. In Enterprise Sales and below the biggest problems are: - No marketing support. Leads that come through are often students or from PWC - The targets are huge and you will be horrendously micromanaged whether you’re on or below target - 2x weekly call blitz sessions that are monitored by management are awful for morale - Everything is cold new business and it is complete luck if you succeed - The licence prices are very high and this often puts off SME companies, which make up much of the target market - Huge emphasis on partner sales, which again is a complete lottery depending on the territory you work - The amount of sales attrition is incredible and they will have you on a PIP before you can blink - 15 sales people were sacked without any warning on one day alone - I could go on all day but the CEO hired his mate to be the CRO who made racist comments on LinkedIn. The CEO originally backed him until he realised the extent of the backlash

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
