Pros

Pay is good. Benefits are good (20% copay). Lots of paid time off. Summer 1/2 day Fridays. Management cares about the company and employees. Work remotely, hybrid or in office - your choice. Strategic direction makes a lot of sense.

Cons

Teradata has struggled to excel in the transition from on-premise hardware to cloud-based solutions. Has had to downsize staff due to revenue shortfalls.

Pros

Not much that I can think of...

Cons

I want to preface this review by saying I have never written a review for a company mainly because I didn’t feel it was necessary until now. I want people to be aware and think twice before applying. I also want to say that I have worked for some successful organizations that were 10x to 33x in revenue and with stellar C-Level management with degrees from Harvard and Stanford who know what excellent company culture looks like and how to treat their people. To put this into perspective, I’ve had a very long career in IT and know how successful companies conduct business and this place isn’t one of them. In addition, the employees that came before me also had the same experience. The management doesn’t listen or value their employees. They jump to conclusions, have knee jerk reactions, change processes at any given time, have a lack of proper procedures, make things up as they go along, overload you with work, expect 16-hour workdays, thousands of layoffs for months on end, no appreciation or thank you for all the work you do and the list goes on and on. The management is very rude and disrespectful. No one should have to tolerate this type of conduct, so please save yourself from the stress, burnout and disrespect and look elsewhere.
