      Pros

      Great co-workers and very seasoned Data Warehousing professionals. Technology is solid and works well. For me pay was good and work life / balance was OK. I was either waiting on work or working 60 hours a week with travel.

      Cons

      Lack of focus on PS sales... They are in the mode of selling anything with poor SOW's agreed upon with customers. Not getting big deals or partnering with IBM/Accenture and others to help grow business. The virtual office is good/bad, it is very difficult to network or know what is happening in the company. Difficult to get training. I almost finished the complete Architecture class list then they changed it or would not allow me to go to critical training. Did not support me getting Hadoop training or Data Science/Analytics classes. Then laid me off since I didn't have Hadoop training.

      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

      Pros

      Lots of training opportunities, decent benefits, onsite cafeteria and gym. Good work-life balance. Decent compensation and work environment (except for 2-3 floor conference rooms). Security staff and cafeteria staff are kind and helpful.

      Cons

      Started losing best leaders about a year ago. Since then, a big push for early retirements for so many long timer rank and file which caused a huge drain in tribal knowledge, then rounds of layoffs. Workload has tripled. Personnel reviews with one-on-one's that have gradually felt like interrogations. Its getting worse as the "transformation" looms. New executive is trying to adopt a startup model and mix it with a more social European style environment. Result will soon be elimination of personal space, constant changes in tools, and more contractors to fill the void. Conference rooms are cold and noisy.
