Pros

- Decent Pay - Peers that are hard working & who truly care - Work from home in some roles

Cons

Where to start!!! - A company whose glory days are way in the past. - Horrible Sr. Leadership who truly have ZERO vision! - They have tried (unsuccessfully) to position the company for sale multiple times - Sr Execs generally have an “elitist” approach and attitude - Continuous, seemingly unending “reorganization” in which every Fiscal Quarter, quality staff is being fired for the sole purpose of trying to make the numbers look better for the street - Many quality key stakeholders have been jumping ship during the past year - These folks truly believe they know all of the answers and refuse to utilize the wealth of knowledge from the diverse staff - HR in this place is all about protecting the mothership and NOT about protecting employees - truly a joke for a public company of this age & size! - Based on recent practices, I’m certain many lawsuits for wrongful termination, etc. are forthcoming. - Although the core Data Warehouse technology is decent, calling Teradata an “Open Source” provider is FALSE! Also, the business is definitely declining as Teradata becomes a dinosaur...soon to be EXTINT!
