Pros

Very nice place to learn Teradata. If someone is looking for Teradata knowledge and flexibility then this is the place for you.

Cons

Sometimes people become lazy. Salary compensation is good at the time you join but the APSR hike is not as per ratings.

Pros

- Friendly co-workers - I was able to do a lot of great work for my teammates during the time that I was there - Relaxed office culture - new office setting really helped with this - Recurring meetings with manager to discuss performance - Company provided training to teammates on Amazon Web Services and Agile Scrum - All of the interns that worked at the same location appeared to do meaningful work for their respective teams. I'd recommended it for students who want to do meaningful work - Work/life balance: company really likes to focus on this. It was nice being able to go home at a little after 5pm on nearly all of the days I worked - 401k: it's pretty good for full time employees

Cons

- I was more of a consultant than an intern at the company. My teammates asked me to come up with software solutions to problems they had, and I implemented them - It was not always clear who I could go to in order to get the help I needed to do the work I was assigned - Was not assigned a mentor that could help me with technical problems - I don't easily see how I would be able to advance into a higher position if I decided to join the company full time

Pros

I was hired into Teradata's marketing division at the end of 2014. I had actually had an offer for a different department earlier in the year but declined because it didn't seem like management had a clear path to where they were going. About six months later I got a call about another job in an area what seemed like it might have potential, so I took it. That turned out to be a mistake. About all I can say is that benefits were good and the people are good, but there was no clear product vision and everything started crashing around us. Eventually most of the management in the marketing division were let go and the division was sold and I became part of the buyer's company, ending my short tenure at Teradata. From what I can tell it looks like Teradata has a new CEO and are making better decisions but since I am no longer there I can't tell from the inside.

Cons

When I was in Teradata's marketing division there was no clear product vision. They also had heavy development processes even though they said they were "agile".
