Pros

Good work-life balance. Opportunities to move around and try new things. Smart and reasonable people. Engineering management generally supportive.

Cons

Although the company is in transition from an old-style corporate culture to a more modern environment, there still is remnants of the old processes. Company is playing catchup in cloud. Organization is still siloed, which is complicating the transition. More political as you move up the chain. (From experience, this is common elsewhere.) Recent RIF has hurt morale.

Very few. Cannot think of anything good to say.

Lack of management and very low morale. Too many chiefs and not enough Indians.

Pros

The people make this company - they honestly try to make it succeed.

Cons

Yearly layoffs, constant fear of layoffs, no advancement opportunities and an ELT that is grossly out of touch with employees and the market.

Hi there. We really do appreciate candid feedback from current employees. And although we understand everyone’s experience is different, we’re sorry yours hasn’t been more positive. On Glassdoor, each individual is allowed one review, per employer, per year, per review type. Glassdoor requires email verification from a permanent, active email address for each user submitting content. The HR and PR team has no influence on Glassdoor reviews aside from encouraging employees to leave their honest feedback, no matter the sentiment. We understand your frustrations on change. Although you've pointed out some room for improvement, it's great to hear that you agree that Teradata employees are our best asset. Thank you for your review.
