Pros

This was probably the best place I've worked for a while.

Cons

And then Salesforce took over and is destroying everything that was good about Tableau. All the Tableau leaders who were well respected are now gone as are many of the strong individuals. Hard to imagine more of a culture clash between the great collaborative culture that Tableau had and the cultish culture of Salesforce.

Pros

Believe me nothing apart from salary is good

Cons

Everyday is a challenge. When you join no trainings on products and you will be given some docs and you have to do cases. Micromanagement is done so much that you will like leaving the job and many people already left. The management is just number specific they want numbers and do not understand how people are meeting targets. People are working day and night to meet numbers. If you join the Indian team forget about your life and family. The worst part is some of the managers are forcing employees to work like donkeys. Instead of taking the concern to the higher management. If you are not online manager will ping you on slack and ask are you working or not. Very bad working environment. Managers from different organisations have joined Salesforce but could not learn Salesforce values but they bought the culture from other companies and keep on imposing them. Not a single employee at Tableau Hyderabad is happy but they do not have any other option. People are looking for jobs internally or outside just after 4-5 months. There can not be any drawback of management more than this. The list is very long but I think this will be enough to ake management aware of the problems.

Going downhill fast, toxic environment

Pros

Free meals, but that's about it. Salary is competitive on the lower scale

Cons

It used to be great fun to work here. Since the company was taken over by Salesforce? Oh boy, has it gone downhill. I know of one location where about 75% of the employee's of one particular manager have had to take sick leave for mental health reasons. You may ask yourself, why is VP level management not seeing this? Well, lower management have a structure of protection. Nepotism and cronyism much? That's right, y'all People who leave are no longer locally replaced, instead this is now outsourced to India. In itself that is not a major issue, however, the quality seems to suffer over the quantity. As long as the cases are taken, that is all we care about, right? It really used to be one of the best places to work, but now, not so much. Management seems to only care about themselves, rather than do what they are supposed to do, like people management. Addressing this to HR is a futile exercise as they have to rely on lower level management structures and information. Helping people see and understand their data is no longer the main goal.
