Pros

i) Mature codebase(DB) and the opportunity to work on database internals. ii) Technical and apolitical environment, easy to change teams. iii) Infinite scope to develop system(optimizer, compiler etc) engineering skill. iv) Encourage research and publications.

Cons

i) Company is moving away from core database development, making it harder to enjoy work. ii) An increasing number of middle-level managers opened door to incompetence. New managers are not up to par. iii) New features are not doing enough justice to the great product. Once a RnD is adapting service-based practices. iv) Higher management is filled with lesser technical (more business) people.

We appreciate your review. There is a concerted effort to deliver on any change communicated by our leadership, much of which has happened within the last two years. Our product vision remains strong, and our product proves it. Teradata was recognized with the highest score amongst all of the vendors in The Forrester Wave™: Data Management for Analytics, Q1 2020. Still, we understand frustrations that might stem from change. We wish you the best in your next endeavor.
