Pros

Brand - Tableau had a 3 years window (while I worked there) which is know for top notch performance and execution. I was able to triple my pay when I left! Stock options - worth something before it tanked due to mgmt. trying to sneak one past wall st

Cons

Management is terrible Pay is unreasonable - even if you are #1 on your team no one cares pay wise HR is ridiculous if you try to move within the company, they low ball you and leave you feeling truly violated

Pros

Tableau has a great work-life balance and seriously amazing benefits. They do a good job at throwing parties. :) Travel for company events

Cons

- unequal pay for women - very low salary increase after yearly review - just a cost of living increase is normal for meeting AND exceeding expectations - they used to give a bunch of healthy great free food, but that has quickly dwindled. They now still give free food, but it's no longer the healthy or organic brands. very little produce as well. I know I sound spoiled here, but it is something that they sell to you when going through the hiring process and it's no longer a huge benefit. - no useful training. you go through a new hire training, but that does NOTHING for your actual job. - added responsibilities and change in position without change in title or increase in pay.

Pros

Great culture, great people, supportive team and tech leads, free food and parking, 10% bonus if sales people hit their quota, stock option after 1 year, 2 annual travel opportunities for company events, pretty good healthcare insurance and afordable insurance for your partner(gay or straight), casual dress code, they care about customer service. If pay is not at the top of your list, this is a great company to work for.

Cons

Pay is $16.75 per hour and your raise will be $0.50 if you hit your numbers during the year. People like when they get recognized for their hard work with money. Basically, the pay is lower than average for this type of work. It should be at least $20 per hour for the amount of work it takes. No work from home, unless under super special circumstances. They hire a lot of college graduates for TSS positions (this job really required some prior support experience with Windows based software). Being a graduate myself, I realized pretty quick the pay and professional advancements are not going to justify the time and money spent on getting a degree. They rant a lot how they promote from within but it's really average for tech support (after 1 and before 2 years you'll get moved to tier 2).
