Pros

the worker bees honestly try hard and are great people unfortunately, they either give up and quit or check in after dealing with management

Cons

Management team HR leadership-looking out for themselves, no employee advocates, how many vp and directors does a team of 100 need? No consistency Revolving door of layoffs and rehiring No long term plan Finance couldn't put together a financial plan if their life depended on it

Pros

Interesting industry to be in. Still riding the "big data" and "advanced analytics" wave (although the offerings are not there)...

Cons

Executive management has created a toxic culture of fear. Most good people are long gone. Snowflake and BigQuery will eventually eat Teradata's lunch.

Business Outlook

Pros

Excellent benefits. Flexible work schedule. Great training. Smart people. Premier technology.

Cons

Company is led exclusively by management who 'bonded' together 10 years ago during merger/spin-out/IPO from NCR/AT&T, and if you are not one of 'them' you will not be promoted into a position of authority/management. Very very old guard who protect their secrets and ignorance. They will not listen to change. You are either a member of YesterYear's senior management club, or you are a meaningless resource.
