Pros

Nice mix groups of people in terms of age, ethnic, experiences. Good and nice people to work with.

Cons

Poor Management and usually no sense of direction. They mostly just want to copy startup companies. Merit and bonus are lowest and close to nothing.

Pros

Work from home Perfect place for people who like getting a salary doing completely nothing.

Cons

Everything - The job is not interesting, not challenging, no possibility of learning new things, no possibility of optimizing tasks or processes, nor bring enhancements. - Colleagues tell you every single day that they are willing to share, that you can ask them to repeat things if you do not remember them or do not know them. Then when you ask them for help or information, they reply with annoyed face and emails. There is no documentation at all, not even regarding basic tasks. So you should be able to learn everything only from listening to the the only single time they will explain you something, if they really do. - Management is completely detached from everything, they say they are overloaded doing what? Nobody knows, they are incredibly slow, even mentally. They do not monitor productivity, performance, nothing at all. Performance in Teradata does not exist. They still give the performance bonus to everyone each month, though - Colleagues and management that don't answer your questions, because they don't understand them. They answer other useless information, repeating the same multiple times. Quite annoying. - Never meet so many mentally slow people all in one company. People who think slower than my grandma. People who believe they are BI or DBA, but they are only able to work like monkeys. Doing the same task over and over does not make you an expert. But the environment is international, so they want to make you believe that they hire the best people....such a big lie.

Pros

pay you big (to dig mud)

Cons

Teradata is a company paying you a very high salary to destroy your skillset not letting you learn any new things or technology no work life balance no one to listen your problems a company who can not buy monitors when required as per project higher management has nothing to do other than making stories for the future. Teradata as a product is one of the worst performing tool in market after working for 1.5 years in Teradata I will not suggest anyone to get attracted by the money company is offering and look out for better opportunities Also Teradata is more of production support that any kind of learnings one of the worst higher management you can imagine. for a 1 year bond they will put you in a support project and that will destroy your at least 2 years . Freshes please stay away from Teradata
