Pros

I am very proud to work at Teradata, because it is a very ethical company, which invests and listens to employees, has flexibility, freedom to create, work autonomy, career opportunities. Great working environment, and great infrastructure so that the team can perform its best. Teradata was and is a school, where people are developed and has the ability to develop our customers, changing the way the world uses data for the benefit of people. I see that the company brings a huge social contribution to the world.

Cons

Teradata has a hard time understanding the multiculturality of its employees and customers. It seems to me that processes, procedures, training, documentation, everything is done based on what happens in the USA. Some things work for other countries, some don't, and I see few actions to mitigate these problems. In countries where English is not their native language, customers want content in their mother language. So there is a rework and duplicate effort to meet these demands, in my opinion Teradata should look more carefully at countries with different cultures and languages ​​and treat them with equity. Another point that I see as improvement is the recognition of post sales work, certainly without sales there is no post sales, and the company is focused/oriented on sales, but the post sales should have larger visibility and recognition, for example see the Winners Circle program, the percentage of people from each department. We have few chance of valuing post-sales work. Sales has the challenge of selling, and post sales the challenge of delivering what has been promised to the customer. Both are complementary and important, as well other departments, adm, fiscal, rh, etc , etc ,etc

Hey there. Thank you so much for your candid and thoughtful review. We're glad you're proud to work at Teradata, and that you've highlighted the autonomy and opportunity available as an employee! We're also grateful for the advice to management you've provided. The importance of multiculturalism (employees and customers alike) can't be overstated, and we'll always work to better understand it and improve our communication for it.

Thanks for your review. You're right, in-person training and interactions are incredibly important. With a large remote workforce and offices around the world, we're continuing to look for new ways to better engage employees via virtual meetings, trainings and beyond.
