Alteryx’s Mark Anderson makes his mark as CoreLogic, Ingram Micro swap CEOs

Perhaps the most notable part of the Alteryx-Trifacta deal: About 16% of the cost of the acquisition comes in the form of Alteryx stock for employees at the San Francisco-based software firm.

Anderson said the $75 million in restricted stock consideration for the Trifacta employees was “quite a bit higher” than is typical for an acquisition of this size.

“We did it because we love the people and we love their experiences,” he told the Business Journal’s Kevin Costelloe.

Alteryx hasn’t forgotten its current employees. Alteryx Chief People Officer L. David Kingsley wrote last week in a social media post that the data analytics firm just gave all non-quota, full-time employees at the company a 10% increase in their base salary.

“This gratitude adjustment was a ‘thank you’ for the work our people put into delivering exceptional results in FY21 and to express appreciation for all that they will help us build together in FY22 and beyond,” Kingsley said.

About 350 of Alteryx’s 1,600 employees work at its Irvine office.

Another perk: “Our leadership team announced that there will be a companywide shutdown week from Feb. 21 through Feb. 25, 2022,” Kingsley said. “Across the company, we will step away from our laptops and phones and take the time and space to recharge.”
