The Airtable table has a UX quirk that I find rage inducing.

When I click on a column header to sort the data, a "sorted by 1 field" dropdown opens and covers the top rows of the newly sorted data. Then if I click the x in the corner of said dropdown, it removes the filter (and doesn't close the dropdown). Clicking outside of the table doesn't close it either, since the table is embedded.

I too had the same issue, I figured you must click the "Sorted by 1 field" badge. I wanted to sort by # of employees and I couldnt see the first few rows.

Same here. I guess sorting by # of employees is the obvious first thing to do with this table.
