Why is the top post not about layoffs on the thelayoffs.com? Are there layoffs November 16th and 17th?

@yv No, Teradata needs to clean house with a whole new leadership team. They need to be replaced by executives from outside Teradata with actual AI and Data experience using competitor tools.
Teradata is in the "if all you have is a hammer everything looks like a nail" stage. Its leaders that dont know or understand their customers use cases or needs. This is not something just PM can address by themselves. Everyone needs to understand whats at stake and what needs to change and they dont.
@yt We need senior and experienced leaders who are senior in the company who can drive and execute India teams which is now growing in numbers
Some negative leaders like testing teams should be removed. They have only one task to show they are busy and want to know what others are doing
@v5 Yes. Our manager from optimizer roams whole day and has hard deadline to go by 3.30 and he excepts us to be on the desk being productive. This company has different rules for different emoloyees
@at Um, actually they don’t. MANY excellent people have been laid off and many worthless employees are still there. Starting at the top.
Rolling layoff in small batches. Employees are remote. The total number in one location does not trigger WARN. Customers are not d-mb, they notice.
@bs I consider those more to be firings than layoffs tbh. Imo if someone isn't doing their job you don't keep them, you let them go
Teradata lays people off every month these days. Identifying a single event doesnt really matter anymore.
I don't imagine any large scale layoffs happening in the near term. Perhaps some that did not perform. Teradata keeps their top people
