Pros

My direct coworkers were some of the best I have ever worked with. The sort of folks you would never mind sharing a drink with after work or when you just need a shoulder to cry on. The healthcare and kitchen snacks were also some of the best I have had.

Cons

Support was often treated as second class citizens. Any time there were company events support was left out. Management also is very disconnected to the needs of the business and the department. Requests, changes, and suggestions were always listened to however were often thrown out. Understaffed so more then often you had 2-3x the workload then what was of the typical employee. Compensation (take home) was also much lower then the Austin average. Often when bad news was brought up rather then facing the issues head on management would turn a blind eye or leave the office in order to avoid any questions or backlash.

Pros

Awesome, smart people Great physical offices FOOD. Fully stocked kitchen to cook, snacks galore, catered food all over Great healthcare Ability to speak up and ask for projects I want to work on Great product Big time customers

Cons

Pay. For reals, pay us more. It's so simple. I want to stay at Tableau forever, but it is hard to convince myself to do that when I could go to Amazon 10 mins away and make double. As costs in Seattle rise, eventually the financial need for more pay will outweigh my desire to work for a really cool company. Hoping that Salesforce will come in and raise our pay to something similar to their own high levels.

Pros

Tableau is a great software. People love our product. Tableau's bootcamp is great, our SKO and yearly conference are very well planned and executed.

Cons

I've been working for a few months on the LATAM team here at Tableau, and I regret having made the decision to join this team. Managers, Directors and VP's should be people that truly care about your career success and make you feel empowered. Unfortunately, they are individuals that joined the company at an early stage and got promote into management which is a usual mistake companies make. Their idea of management is super old school. They lead based on fear, they don't allow you to have a work life balance, and they simply don't bring anything positive to the table. Most partners have warned me to never bring my superiors to any onsite client meetings. For people looking to join a LATAM team, I would advise you not to look at Tableau as a possible employer. Lastly, their compensation package is very bad in comparison to other tech companies.
