Topics regarding layoffs at Alteryx

Product & Engineering Now In Caste System

I have noticed this trend that happens to tech companies and it's now in full swing at Alteryx. As soon as someone at VP level takes over an organization, they end-up cleaning house and filling the company with other people who are used to the... — read more

Why isn’t the sales org industry aligned?

I heard Alteryx used to be industry aligned years ago, is that true? The fact that our sales org is currently aligned by geographic region is asinine. Geography doesn’t drive value for customers. Past industry experience does. It seems like all... — read more 

If you can, leave now

Things will not improve. Alteryx hasn't been the same company it once was for a while now. Years ago, this was a great place for smart, ambitious young people but now any career progression has been brought to a crawl. Add to that layoffs and lacking... — read more 

Stellar mid year review and then canned 2 weeks later

What a kick in the teeth, get told you are amazing and an asset to the company and then get sh-t canned 2 weeks later. This company was so great when I first joined, the heart and soul are gone and it is so sad. No culture left, yet Mark still gets... — read more 

It’s time for the Board to step in

The board of directors needs to step in and assert control over what’s happening at the company. Billions of dollars of value has been destroyed over the past 3 years. This leadership “dream team” brought in largely through nepotism has utterly... — read more 

They don't know how to bring out the best in people

While the competition knows how to get the best out of employees, Alteryx does everything to make us lose all motivation. The lack of appreciation we receive is unbelievable and I'm starting to feel more and more unwelcome here. Sometimes I... — read more 

Can I volunteer for layoff?

This is a serious question. I have a job waiting for me whenever I want to start, but I don't want to simply walk away and miss out on a nice payout. After so many years here, I do think I deserve it. If there's a way to volunteer, maybe that would... — read more 

Employee moral and FY24 Planning

In my 20+ years working, I’ve never seen such low employee morale. Staff all around me have been totally checked out today, away status all day, not responding to teams messages/emails, not engaging in conversations even on external calls. To make... — read more 

Sales Org is like musical chairs

Sales territories are a joke. Most teams have one person with great accounts crushing their number and the rest of the team struggling to build pipeline. This is driving up the cost of sale, increasing attrition, and creating a culture that does not... — read more

I know layoffs will probably take place throughout the month, but is there any chance that the brunt of it is over?

An atmosphere of fear and anxiety

This place has become a real mess. Doesn't it seem like our bosses enjoy creating an atmosphere of fear and anxiety? It's incomprehensible why they do it. I can't wait to leave.

Who would buy this company anyway?

When people talk hypothetically about an acquisition, I wonder who would even buy this. I don't believe there is anyone mad enough to do so. You?

Alteryx cutting bonuses — is the rumor true?

Heard on my own and saw on here that employee bonuses are being cut for the September bonus. Can anyone definitively confirm this? If so has the amount of the cut been confirmed? If they do this it is going to drop morale much lower than it has... — read more 

Just make sure not to quit

I hear too many people talk about quitting and I personally believe that's a huge mistake. Why walk away and leave possible severance behind? If you are good at what you do, you'll be able to find a new job whether you try now or in a month or two... — read more

Anything new on August layoffs?

Heartless leadership team in EMEA

To anyone ever looking to work at Alteryx... my advice is don't. With the recent layoffs, the leaders have been so cold towards those affected. The selection criteria has been appalling and all this had been fixed for months. Does anyone know any... — read more
