Pros

Everyone mentions this in their review, but the culture truly is amazing. I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop after being in a bad work environment before Tableau. The people are smart, friendly, compassionate, hardworking, and really believe in Tableau's mission. Can't beat the perks of tons of free food, great location, fantastic benefits, fancy sit-stand desks for everyone, and a beautiful new office space either! I've never heard anyone complain about their job or the company, which is a first after where I've worked in the past.

Cons

I definitely have gained weight since I started here because of all of the free food! The interview process was a little long and intense, but it felt great to get the offer.

So happy to read you are loving being at Tableau! I agree...the Tableau ten isn't a myth! My secret is checking out a Tableau Cruiser in the Seattle office and taking it for a spin at lunch on the Burke...helps me justify the Cherry Coke and peanut butter pretzels! :)

Pros

Great Product. Passionate Colleagues. I feel empowered by management to pursue projects that I feel will help me professionally and to develop my career. As someone who has been with the company for a few years I feel respected and valued.

Cons

I don't feel that there are good career opportunities to be promoted from within. The company is growing extremely quickly but they are mostly hiring managers externally. I fear that Tableau is growing so fast that I will be forgotten, that I will feel less and less valued as my role is marginalized. Compensation seems below market rate. Tableau's financial strategy seems extremely conservative. I am a little concerned about their ability to retain talent.
