Great People & Culture, Business Model is Shaky

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great people on the whole and a customer focused, "do the right thing", culture. Many long term employees with invaluable experience. Most customers are happy and loyal. Recent leadership changes are for the most part the right people in the right places.

Cons

There is a tremendous market shift taking place that is creating tremendous challenges and opportunities for Teradata. To date Teradata has been a little slow in responding and the business model has been slow to adapt. There have been rounds of downsizing as a result. Opportunites to advance in a shrinking company are also limited

Pros

Teradata provides it's employees freedom and flexibility around work schedules, and provides a good work-live balance - assuming you're disciplined enough to manage your time. Coworkers are passionate and dedicated to great customer service.

Cons

Teradata (and whole industry) is in deep transformation, lots of change right now. Many internal processes are difficult to use, but are being re-done now. Pricing is overly complex, but again, is being re-done.
