Pros
Love working with outcome-oriented team, not nearly as much internal politicking as some of the other places I've worked. AWESOME product that people easily fall in love with.
Cons
The company is clearly maturing from startup phase, and the grumbling from early Tabloids that "things used to be better" ignores the fact that there are plenty of good people here who are excited about working on the next phase of the company's growth.
Advice to Management
The structural changes may be uncomfortable for individuals, but so far the big decisions have been the right ones. Keep it up!

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Tableau Software (Palo Alto, CA) in December 2017.
Interview
- Initial phone call with HR
- Phone screen round - Asked 1 leetcode hard question (NDA, so can't disclose)
- Followed by Onsite - 4 rounds-
1st round -This was a Design round and they were more interested in how you resolve the conflicts in the backend and what design decisions would you make for resolving those conflicts.My solution was a mix of how I can optimize the backend implementation logic and also made few design changes so that I was fulfilling the non-function requirements like- latency , consistency etc.
- 2nd round was coding round, was asked a leetcode hard problem. Correct and optimal solution matters but they respect if you can modularize your code and this gives you some extra points.
- 3rd round was a general conversation round , talking about my passions & interests. Also making me a little more familiar with what the team was doing.
- Last round was a coding round , which began with some discussion on one of my projects and then was presented a coding question which was again a hard question of Dynamic Programming.
