      Used to be a fantastic place to work, but no longer

      Pros

      Good database technology but many key engineers no longer there.

      Cons

      Inept leadership who monitor Salesforce activity more than actually engage with prospects and customers. Constant layoffs over the last 18-24 months. How can Vantage be the fastest growing product in Company history when revenue gains are mostly linked to existing customers converting to subscription based licenses? No new logos! Biggest marketing spin I have ever seen, Vantage is the vintage Teradata software for the most part, and rebranded under a new name. The Teradata people and culture were great for so many years, now most of those folks that were key contributors to that success are gone, many asked to walk out the door with no notice. Horrible culture with key institutional knowledge having left the company. More people leaving all of the time. Overpriced database technology that will be huge obstacle to growth for new logos, too many alternatives in the market.

      Culture Transformation Means Double-Down on Legacy Business

      Pros

      Teradata has a culture of doing the right thing for the customer and has retained many employees for a long time. There is investment in improving culture and morale.

      Cons

      New leadership is out of step with market perception and continues to invest in proprietary analytics technology that isn't aligned with market needs. Talent level is uneven. Most employees are concerned about the direction the company is going.

      Pros

      Casual work environment, flexible working hours, good benefits and PTO

      Cons

      Accounting and Finance depts affected by recent outsourcing. This really messed up what was a very good, fairly smooth-running operation. Work environment has unfortunately become very negative. Outsourcing has caused many problems.
