Pros

My team lead meets with me regularly (not just once a year) to help me reach my career goals at Tableau.

Cons

It can feel overwhelming at first because I thought I needed to know everything (which is not the case)

Pros

Great work/life balance, flexible scheduling. Overall, the culture is all it's hyped up to be, coworker are smart, humble, and friendly and there are people from all walks of life in the past. So far, in Tech Support alone, I've met people who owned clothing businesses, worked for Pixar, and worked for Google. None of whom regret the switch. HUGE demand for talent internally, so great upward mobility is a plus. Currently there is a sign on bonus consisting of a relatively substantial stock offering. Transparent management style and procedure. Plenty of opportunity to change roles. Medical, Dental, etc. are all good and employer paid.

Cons

Lower than industry standard salary, most people I've met have taken a pay-cut.

Pros

- pride themselves on an "open" culture. what they say and don't say is illuminating. - good product which other business intelligence houses are struggling to catch up with (they will) - whether you like it or not, they try and keep what they view as an "entrepreneurial" culture. the result of this depends on your view of that.

Cons

- you don't feel that you have the right information at the right time - tends to verge on a sweatshop culture. repetitive and grinding work - managers can't manage - very political environment. if you're not in with the "it crowd" in Seattle, you won't succeed
