    There's a reason Alteryx is one of the top places to work in OC!

    Pros

    - Incredibly smart and fun colleagues - Great pay - Flexible time off - Inspiring leadership - You're working for a product you believe in!

    Cons

    None that I can think of. There's a reason why Alteryx has been named top places to work in Orange County. Not only is the company culture amazing but the product is industry leading!

    Pros

    Lots of random benefits Serves food in the cafeteria weekly possibly everyday Lots of great people to work with Decent health insurance Okay stock options

    Cons

    Managers tend to follow the Peter principle Standard Middle Management practices Low pay increase Will generally not work with you for personal emergencies or anything else going on in your life If you were neurodivergent this place may not be very kind. For a company that places so much value in their own values they sure aren't willing to walk the talk.

    Serious mental health abuse of Marketing Ops, Web and Campaigns teams.

    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Great product, but cloud adoption is going slow. There are incredibly smart people within product and brand group.

    Cons

    An independent party should investigate alleged mental health abuse and mistreatment of everyone on marketing operations, website and campaigns teams. People are terrified to speak up. The current marketing leadership needs OVERSIGHT. This is not healthy. Ms. Sutton - Please help. They are in need of someone they can trust and turn to, as they have concerns about job security and retaliation. Your help would be greatly appreciated in ensuring their well-being and fostering a positive work environment.

    Very challenging, very rewarding!

    Feb 3, 2023 - Sales Development Representative (SDR) in Dallas-Fort Worth

    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Benefits, benefits, benefits! Alteryx has created a work culture that reflects qualities that I believe in outside of work; inclusion, support, comradery, and a work smart/play hard spirit. My teammates and leadership constantly challenge me and the visibility and opportunity for growth within the company are high. I transitioned from an entirely different career where I was burned out, working 60+ hours a week, and no room for financial growth. Alteryx has been a dream for me ever since I started and there's not a week that I don't take my time here for granted.

    Cons

    Ever changing systems/ideas but that comes with the territory of technology and innovation. The message/execution is still the same for Sales, however, it's just the tools we use that change quite a bit. There are some growing pains as an organization but that is totally understandable given our position in the market and how much opportunity for growth we have. "Go with the flow" as some might say.

    Upper management in shambles

    Feb 2, 2023 - Enterprise Account Executive in Reading, PA
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Long time player in the space, robust customer base. Good amount of resources you have access to. Exec's willing to roll their sleeves up and help close the deal (I will credit that to them). Strong partner ecosystem.

    Cons

    Journey to the cloud is going to be ugly, upper leadership doesn't know how to run a cloud business. Desktop product is great for older school organizations, but any customer with a modern cloud strategy hates it. Cloud product is two years away from being viable option and addressable to the larger market. Internal politics between on-prem and cloud team limiting growth.

    Pros

    Good pay, good comp, incredible space, fun business trips, great leaders - what's not to like?

    Cons

    Some managers haven't recieved university level managerial training, they were just successful SDR/BDR/AEs, which doesnt always make them good managers... But even the "bad" here is much better than toxic companies because the culture doesnt breed toxic people.

    Best company and team I've ever worked for

    Nov 3, 2022 - Marketing Programs Manager 
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    If you want to work with some of the most talented and high-performing people in the industry, Alteryx is it. The company is filled with rockstars in all areas of the business that have a growth mindset and positive attitudes from the top down. It is very rare to hear about complaints, and it's even rarer to have them go unheard. The senior management team is always looking for ways to advance their employees and has many internal programs to enhance your skills in leadership or in your own solution. The benefits cover far beyond healthcare and in my experience, management is always accommodating to your needs. The company really values every idea and voice. It's a fast-paced environment, but I guarantee that you'll be pushed to greatness and smile the whole time. I never thought companies and teams like this existed, but they are in fact real and Alteryx works really hard to keep our incredible culture. We really are #AllIn in what we do and love doing great work for our customers.

    Cons

    Depending on your position and location, there are times when you may be working at odd hours to accommodate regional teams to make calls. They do try their best to make them bi-weekly/monthly but note that they're not uncommon.

    Wow -- so great to see all the Pros you listed! I was especially happy to see how you've found this to be a place that takes your feedback seriously. When it comes to working odd hours, I'd encourage you to discuss this with the team. We all need time away from work, and it's important to us that you have this time every day so you can recharge. Thank you, Doniel Sutton Chief People Officer

    From Education to Software

    Mar 4, 2023 - Sales Operations Specialist in Denver, CO
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Being a former educator where the hours are grueling and the workload is unexplainable this review could be a little skewed, to say the least, based on my experience in a totally different sector, and the impact my previous career had on me as an individual. Working at Alteryx however has been a breath of fresh air. ( I know, I know, sounds theatrical) , but it has been for me. One thing that is great is flexibility. Being a Mom and taking my daughter to appointments or going to her school for a school function is my priority, and Alteryx gets that. We are allowed the space with effective communication with our managers to do this without feeling guilty. The next, of course, is working from home!!!! For some, this is not what they want but for me, it works! If you aren't into working from home, you can also go in person if you are close to one of our many office locations around the world. So you get to decide if you work from home or not. In this era where people want to be able to decide where they get to be productive, Alteryx has figured out a way to really make everyone happy. The benefits are great! Again, I am comparing all of these experiences to previous ones which were in a totally different sector. In comparison, the benefits at Alteryx are top-tier. I saw all of that to say, it is a dope place to work!

    Cons

    Although I had a lot of good to say, the one area of growth would be the diversity among leadership. The development around DEIB ( Diversity, equity, inclusion & belonging ) is also an area of growth/action, which to be fair is complex within a fully remote company.

    Thank you so much for this review. Reading about the positive impact Alteryx has had on your life is so great to see. It's important to us that Alteryx is a workplace built on trust, including giving employees the flexibility they need to balance their work and their lives. DEIB (and specifically, improving our diverse representation at all leadership levels) is a big priority for us. To your point, it is complex, but Equality is one of our core values and we will continue to seek progress on this journey. Thank you, Doniel Sutton Chief People Officer
