Incredibly supportive environment, with great benefits and compensation and excellent work/life balance. You will find that your managers really do care about building your career.

Cons

If you're uncomfortable with change, you probably won't like Tableau. Management changes and shifts a lot, and roles expectations change as required to keep alignment with company goals.
