Hiring but nobody's getting hired?

I’m not interested in discussing hiring practices here, but I’ve noticed that TD obviously has a lot of problems with hiring. Someone told me that there are cases when the company is officially hiring and has advertised open positions for some... — read more

Were there any December layoffs?

There were many threads over the past couple of months about layoffs in December ... did any layoffs (of any size/consequence) actually happen? Even if under-the-radar?

Why hire managers from outside?

There are lots of things that don't make sense here, we can list them for days. Can anyone explain to me why Teradata prefers to hire managers from outside? Isn't it better for this company to promote managers from within?

Outdated skills

I have a friend who is currently facing this problem, he can't find a better job because his skills are outdated. Has it happened to anyone else that looking for a new job revealed how much your skills have actually atrophied here? Obviously most... — read more

The worst thing about working here

I'm not sure what's the worst thing about working at TD lately. Is it the terrible leadership, insulting pay, or the complete lack of appreciation? Maybe it's the awful communication, lack of career advancement, or no accountability, especially when... — read more

What's wrong with them?

I am not a person who thinks too highly of himself, of course there are many better employees, but it is not normal to expect that something that is difficult to finish in a few days will be done in a few hours. What does Teradata want? People to... — read more

Don’t try to think differently here

Yesterday we had a situation that made me remember my former colleague and friend, who was one of the most talented experts at his job that I know. At TD, he was giving lots of headaches to his superiors. He always came full of energy, with new... — read more

New CMO Falls Flat with team

Wow, what a horrible introduction. The female version of NC. Has no context but has an opinion on how bad we suck. Treats the team like id--ts out of the gate. This should be fun.

I gave notice out of spite

I was relatively comfortable here. Although there were stressful situations, I was never overwhelmed with so much work that I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown, I was satisfied with how much I was paid, etc. What made me quit was the leadership... — read more

GTM and Social Presence

Bit of a kick in the teeth for TD, when some of their more socially connected individuals go elsewhere and extoll the benefits of real business outcomes. MC/JJ/KH

NC May Be Out…

Rumor is that SM will take him out by the end of the year. The Strategy team has zero respect and NC has poisoned many relationships. If not for woke concerns he would already be gone. Yet another disaster ELT fiasco.

TD is going towards the rock bottom

How far are we from the rock bottom? I think that TD is not far at all and that it is very important not to get our hopes up too much that anything will change, but to look for better opportunities.

“New Strategy” Impact?

NC has been here more than a year now. He’s paid tens of millions to McKinsey buddies, and even hired a few at hefty salaries. Can anyone articulate any value we’ve seen from his “new strategy?” If so, please respond.

Market Cap - SNOW $108B vs TDC $4.5B

Snowflake built their business right in front of Teradata in their core market. How did this happen? Talk about being asleep at the wheel. And now TDC can’t even build a second place cloud product after Snowflake showed them what to build. This will... — read more

This hasn't been an innovative company for a long time

I’d love to work for an innovative company, but TD is certainly not that. There has been no innovation here for a long time. I wonder what miracle needs to happen for TD to become an innovative place again? Maybe it's better to forget that because... — read more

M.e. RIP - You Did Good as CMO

Enjoy your time off knowing you did as good a job as any CMO could do at Teradata. You put lots of lipstick on the pig. Even renamed her and put a dress on her. But customers can still smell her and that gives it away. If HA could turn the pig into a... — read more

Rare TDC’s CEOs last 10 years

This exercise will show you the main issue with the company. Unfortunately it will also depress you. I’ve lived through all these and it’s been torture. Scale of 1-10. MK (3) VL (2), OR (3), VL (2) SM (5). The BOB failed us since their main job is to... — read more

Is management allergic to new ideas or what?

Whenever new employee comes in, talented, enthusiastic, with a lot of desire to work, either he very quickly leaves this company or TD finds a way to get rid of him. From all this we can deduce that the management is actually allergic to new... — read more

“Barnes and Noble of Data Warehousing”

The perfect tagline for TDC. The new CMO can save money on a branding study. A close second is “TDC, More expensive than you think!” Or “Vantage, the industry’s only non-elastic, hard-to-provision cloud 😉”

TD on resume

I am trying to find a new job but honestly, I am a bit ashamed to have so many years of experience in TD on my resume. Is there any value in having TD on resume when looking for a new job? Or just the opposite? That would not surprise me either... — read more

Snowflake stock soars on strong revenue and Q4 guidance

I got Kaiser, but thinking about changing to Cigna. Cigna seems more expensive, but at least HSA is easier since it's supported by Teradata. Anyone have feedback on Cigna costs, ease of use, etc?
