Tableau has wonderful people who've built some really amazing products, and a very creative and caring fan base. There are some very interesting challenges at this time to work on as well.
They pay decently well and have good, but not great, benefits (i.e., Salesforce vs. say, Google, Facebook, or Microsoft).
The Salesforce acquisition. SF is not creative and is an online-only business. Tableau is a desktop and server business with online extensions, existing in a creative space.
SF doesn't understand either context and will destructively copy Tableau into whatever it thinks Tableau should be. Until Salesforce finishes this process, there will be a huge amount of chaos, ambiguity, and churn. People will leave at a high rate, context will drain, and you'll have something completely new once complete. Luckily, they've put into place a hiring freeze to spare new folks this experience.
Don't attempt to digest Tableau into Salesforce. Spin it off as part of a new creative business platform before it becomes the 2020s equivalent of Nokia. Or sell it to Microsoft (un-ironically), who understands the space Tableau is in and could use a lot of creativity there.

Applied online and received a coding challenge. Was invited for a final interview that combined technical and behavioral components. Overall, the process took about a month. The interviewers were very friendly and ready to answer my questions.
One phone screen, a few coding questions for homework, and an in-house interview. The technical questions lasted four hours. The engineers seemed very happy to be there. Yes, it has gone public, but it's clearly in the sweet phase of a software compa
