Pros

Look, no organisation is perfect, so I want to give Alteryx benefit of the doubt on few things that are genuinely great (or were ) about this company - - Incentives and Pay - They can and will offer you a "competitive base" and the health insurance part is pretty good. - Dean and Libby - Love them, genuine people, and when you talk to them, you would know what badassery analytics mean, the foundation of the product - The product itself - Designer is great, but slowly becoming obsolete as there are more suppliers with similar offers and better prices. Look that's the way it is, you don't innovate, you become lost in the crowd - L.David Kingsley - Where else have you seen a CPO who will take time and answer each and every review on glassdoor. Even in meetings, he doesn't shy away from presenting the shortcomings in the leadership team. He is an asset to this organisation. I hope he doesn't get corrupted and remain as empathetic as he is now, forever.

Cons

Alteryx, we need to TALK: It's not YOU, it's ME... - I couldn't take any more non-ethical budgeting practices, I wanted to sleep well at night - I couldn't see nepotistic hiring anymore, where people were favoured just because they knew high-ups -I couldn't see bad behaviours encouraged and talent discouraged at every step of my journey. I saw my fellow colleagues who I worked with, went to boot camp, who were absolute genius, left suddenly. And you gave a reason that they couldn't adapt to change? Really? These folks (well including me), represented Alteryx in front of thousands of people, and we couldn't adapt to change? - I couldn't see our culture going from empowering analysts to obsessing with C-Suite, who will not even use our product (I know it because I spoke to them so many times), and hence our website went from award-winning in 2019, to one of the worst-performing websites. - I couldn't bear the burden of scaremongering and a culture of fear, because I thought Alteryx was a company the promoted diversity and differences of opinion -I couldn't bear the culture as it started having adverse effects on my mental and physical health -I couldn't see you, Alteryx, from being so empathetic with old leaders to becoming so discouraging with new leaders I love you Alteryx, I always will, but I love myself more. And for my well being, I am ending this relationship. I hope you will find a better partner, a better employee.

Hi there and thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. While I'm disappointed to read that you've chosen to move on and that we ultimately failed to meet your expectations, I'm grateful for your years of service to Alteryx. It's the foundation that has been built by people like you over the past 24 years that are setting the groundwork for what we're building and where we're going. Thank you for the candor of your input here on the reasons you felt compelled to move on - and I appreciate both your love for Alteryx, and your commitment to your own well-being, which is an area we've been working to focus on this year. With each of the programs we're putting in place, input and feedback from employees (current and former) is so critical. To that end, I'd be grateful for a few minutes of your time to share more confidentially on your feedback. Leading in and being part of a company who chooses to do the right thing - even when it's the hard thing - is critical to me, and to my colleagues. As you mentioned in your comments, I read each review here and it's important to me to respond personally, as you gave your time, talent and energy to Alteryx, and your thoughts on what we're doing well - and the areas where we can improve - are critical to our continued progress and to the bright future I believe Alteryx has. Thanks again for sharing your thoughtful feedback, tough as some of it is to hear. And even more importantly, thank you for what you brought to Alteryx. We wish you all the best on the next chapter of your journey, and please keep in touch. Thanks, David

Cult like with poor salary

Pros

Some benefits are good and the salary is supposedly at market rates.

Cons

Recently changed to commission payouts for total contract value and multiplied the targets, so now the company is making record profits and no one is making commission while management is putting everyone under extra pressure. It has become a very toxic work environment in less than 6 months.

Sinking ship

Pros

Benefits package was pretty good

Cons

The product lacks innovation, it needs to be completely rebuilt for the cloud. Competitors are catching up fast. Share price is tanking and won’t recover. I experienced the worst leadership of my life here and left traumatised, I had to take months off after to recover physically and emotionally from this toxic place. This wasn’t just a rogue manager, it was rife throughout. The ANZ leader encouraged colleagues to gossip and would lie about colleagues to other leaders of the business to back his own delusions. The whole experience was disrespectful and he really wore me thin, I’m not the only one. Constant lies and all ideas shut down. Targets, territories and go to market were stupid and lacked thought. They bled money and lacked strategy.

Hi there and thanks for your comments. Similar to other posts like yours from the ANZ region, we've worked closely in the last couple months with both our leadership and our team members there to investigate the experience you shared. While everyone's experience is indeed different, I feel confident that our ANZ team is one that is operating with the respect, professionalism and integrity that we expect from colleagues across our company. That said, it's possible I've missed something in my conversations, and if you'd be willing to connect live, please connect with me on LinkedIn and I'd be grateful for a few minutes of your time to discuss. Thanks, David
