Pros

Interesting technology, some great people who want to make a difference

Cons

Culture is horrible, people scared to speak. Diversity enforced so much people are scared to even look at other people. What is good for California must be enforced globally no matter what. Very poor HR organization, totally inexperienced and useless. The core product is amazing however very limited market space, you can only sell to data scientists and that is very limited, very expensive, competition is smarter. The company thinks California not global, doe snot understand what a global company is what a global economy is or anything outside Hollywood California. The Californias do not care what time it is. They will arrange a training session for two weeks for people around the globe in countries which starts at 6pm to 11pm midnight two weeks running including weekends in some countries simply because the Californians want to work from 9 to 5 their time so they do not disrupt their personal lives. Frequent conference calls at 11pm, 2am is the normal as long as it suits Californians.

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
