Thread regarding Alteryx layoffs

Executive Engagement Levels

Paula seems more checked out than the Britannica encyclopedia set I borrowed from the public library in 1998 and forgot to return. I hear she’s putting in about an hour per day

Suresh is more disengaged than the Trifacta browser engine attempting to run a workflow. Just won’t respond no matter what you do

Chris Natali seems to be as excited about work as an American prisoner is in a Russian prison

Jill appears to be operating more robotically than the bots on Tesla’s assembly line

Chris Lal is so demotivated that he’s been signing inbound NDAs and MSAs without even reading let alone redlining them

Trevor is so not excited about his day job that he’s been doing three times the number of external CIO promotional interviews that he normally does per week

DVs so done with work that he’s even canceled the pointless weekly engineering reviews that were his one attempt to appear involved

Lucas has become so apathetic lately that he’s turned his attention to personally coming up with creative phishing email scams and sending them to his team to test their judgement

Alan’s so frustrated with the state of affairs of cloud that he’s taken to demoing Dataiku during the few remaining customer meetings he has left

What a wonderful time to be here! 


The motivational speaker for next week really has their work cut out for them

They shouldn’t just have an asterisk on their resume. They should have a tattoo on their forehead that says I destroyed $7 billion in market cap

There were many poor decisions over the years Y-Hat, trifacta , and even the company that specializes in feature engineering, but the staffing choices took the cake 🎂 . You see analytics is a personal sale and choice that takes work to get a customer to buy and nurturing. It is not like selling routers or VMware licenses. There is an art 🖼️ to convincing someone in a crowded space this why we differentiate. Hyperscalers may have pushed hardware , cloud products around security, and switches but you can’t expect them to sell analytics. Each of us have certain responsibility for where we are at but the Macro decisions really was a drastic change from how we became successful. Moving away from great partners like aimpoint, data meaning, slalom, and to some degree house De Soden (Capitalize). Having them help build and start working with alteryx along with SEs really drove customer value and revenue together. Once we moved from adoptions|Aips to Moonshots 🌙 that truly was the beginning of the end. Although each person in our c-suite will easily find work… there should be an asterisk *️⃣ on their resume…”I sc--wed up one of the best companies.”
