Pros

Technology is fantastic. Designer is a great product. The offices are really nice and have tons of amenities. Some people maintain decent work life balance, some don't - it really depends on your manager.

Cons

Executive leadership is the biggest mess I've ever seen. The CMO is a literal robot of a human being with zero communication skills and an impossible micro-management leadership style. She manages two full departments for some reason and has way too many direct reports. Watching the SVPs all try to anticipate and accommodate her constantly changing opinions is hilarious. The CEO tried and failed to to convince the company he cares about DE&I. Company wide meetings addressing a racist c-level exec who was was fired within two weeks were a train wreck. No one expects tech companies to be all that socially aware but I've heard more sophisticated conversations about race and equity from children.

Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. I agree with you that our products and our offices are top notch, surpassed only by the people who make it all possible. With the new leadership team we have in place, we're charting the course to build on the strong foundation of the company, with an eye to the products and services that our customers will need to continue to thrive at the company and industry level. As you saw earlier this year, we introduced our refreshed core values, the central one of which is Equality. Our entire leadership team is committed to our culture and to the shared success of all of our people through a focus on diversity, equity and inclusion. Rooted in that commitment, we're focused on everyone's empowerment and alignment around our shared goals and objectives. Thanks again for your feedback - please don't hesitate to reach out directly as well. And thank you for what you've been contributing to our success to date during your time here at Alteryx! Thanks, David

Pros

Great healthcare benefits and the legacy product still works

Cons

You won’t find worse leadership, micromanagement, broken processes, and a new ‘vision’ every quarter. Customers have stopped renewing and they are forced to buy features they don’t use or want.
