Pros

Great culture, great people, supportive team and tech leads, free food and parking, 10% bonus if sales people hit their quota, stock option after 1 year, 2 annual travel opportunities for company events, pretty good healthcare insurance and afordable insurance for your partner(gay or straight), casual dress code, they care about customer service. If pay is not at the top of your list, this is a great company to work for.

Cons

Pay is $16.75 per hour and your raise will be $0.50 if you hit your numbers during the year. People like when they get recognized for their hard work with money. Basically, the pay is lower than average for this type of work. It should be at least $20 per hour for the amount of work it takes. No work from home, unless under super special circumstances. They hire a lot of college graduates for TSS positions (this job really required some prior support experience with Windows based software). Being a graduate myself, I realized pretty quick the pay and professional advancements are not going to justify the time and money spent on getting a degree. They rant a lot how they promote from within but it's really average for tech support (after 1 and before 2 years you'll get moved to tier 2).

Pros

Great product, mission and leadership. You always have access to leadership and you are encouraged to share ideas and feedback.

Cons

You are always busy, and if you feel like you need a job where you know you have finished everything at the end of the day, you are unlikely to feel like that at Tableau.

Great Environment, Below Average Compensation

Pros

The people and culture are amazing, and most people are very encouraging in your career growth. Excellent day to day work environment, and inter office politics are not nearly as frustrating as they are in other similar companies.

Cons

It does not pay enough for many roles, especially where internal promotions are concerned. If you get hired externally to a specific role, you will make way more money than someone promoted internally to that role, regardless of experience or skill in the role.
