Lots of smart people

Pros

Working on software that people actually want to use is always a plus. Despite fast growth, the people all seem to be on the same team, and are all quite capable.

Cons

Old code base with a fair number of Windows-specific assumptions, with no good way to learn. Remote meetings never really work well, lots of time wasted setting these up.

Satisfying Place to Work

Pros

The products are excellent and the roadmap for future improvements is genuinely exciting. The engineering staff is top notch - you get to work with really bright people without egos getting in the way. The (rapidly growing) customer base is almost fanatical in their love of the product. Work/life balance is achievable here compared to most places. What you do here actually matters - people are going to use and depend on what you build.

Cons

Late stage startup so if you are looking for a garage startup where there is no technical baggage or a huge company where you can just hide and slack, this isn't it.

Pros

The product is phenomenal. Fiscally responsible. Greater transparency w/in Tableau than any company I've worked for. Smart people. Culture of integrity. Management team (both exec and mid level) that you want to win for.

Cons

Running a fiscally conservative startup means trade offs - wha wha. Small, rapidly growing company means change is frequent, though decision making is strong. Not a place to work if you just want to show up.
