Pros

Good technical staff. Great technical resources for learning the firm's software products. Senior management tries to align staff around common messages and goals. Work/life balance is generally decent.

Cons

Their technology is good, but expensive and highly specialized - there isn't much worth to learning it unless you expect to stay a long time, and given that Hadoop is eating Teradata's lunch Teradata may not have a lot of time left. The sales teams rule the roost - a lucky salesperson that lands one good deal is given license by management to treat tech consultants like dirt.

Pros

Company recognized and is acting on need to transition to newer technologies, innovate and deliver value to customers. Removing CEO in 2016 was a positive.

Cons

New C-level leadership is inexperienced causing the organization to thrash. Lack of consistency in initiatives and engineering mentality for product development
