Was a great company once

Pros

Teradata technology is still great, as are some of the people, and it is an outstanding cloud-agnostic analytical database choice which can be deployed in many different ways

Cons

Despite lip service to the contrary outside Cloud Provider integration, and SI collaboration if forced, there is no real commitment to partnering. Although the technology still holds it's own, other newer technology in the same space are viewed as better in the market as a whole. They have been on a multiple year cost cutting frenzy to account for the failure of a strategy to move to indirect channels. Given the failure of the strategy, revolving door at the top other than the CEO, and uncertainty of any job in the organization, I couldn't recommend working there to anyone.

Pros

None that I can think of

Cons

they are living off cash flow they didn't create and have no idea how to grow. They have NO new customers and the Ceo celebrates his strategy on analyst calls while operating revenue is down 50% year over year

Pros

2021 had summer Fridays- where if you were pacific coast based you could leave your virtual office by 12. East Coast you had to work until California signed off...

Cons

Constant restructuring - to the point that org charts just aren't updated nor is workday until two or three changes in. Management promotions to "yes" people only. Instead of addressing the constant restructuring, HR keeps pushing diversity.
