Pros

Great customer-centric culture, leadership that's doing everything right, investing in & achieving huge growth, taking over the world. I've been here for 2 years and, for the first time in my life, am not planning my next career move; I'm here to stay for the foreseeable future.

Cons

None. There are growing pains (impossible to avoid when your company is doubling in size year over year for 10+ years), but all things considered those pains are handled very well. The extremely competent team is doing their best.

Pros

Tableau was truly a special place. Wonderful people on a mission to help people see and understand data. It felt like everyone was trying to move in the same direction to achieve a common goal. I really enjoyed coming in to work and my teammates.

Cons

The Salesforce acquisition led to a gradual decline. While at first we were hopeful that there was an opportunity to both learn from SF and have SF learn from Tableau, it became very clear that SF leadership had limited desire to incorporate strengths from Tableau. At the same time, the ability to make decisions and / or make any progress gradually disappeared. As a result, many of Tableau best employees left.

Pros

Still a great product at a premium price. Rabid customer base. Very industry focused. Mostly great people to work with.

Cons

The Salesforce acquisition has really deteriorated the culture of Tableau. Most of management is trying so hard to align themselves with the Salesforce management they have forgotten what made Tableau great. The commissions team gave as little visibility or sales support as possible. They ended up playing a trick to not pay my full exiting commission. The best sales people are so frustrated they are all leaving.
