Topics regarding layoffs at Teradata Corp.

Possible 2025 Announced!

Another stellar event in Los Angeles in October to showcase the amazing Teradata solutions, demonstrate how Fortune 100 customers are flocking to us, and to highlight how we’re so far ahead in AI! You won’t want to miss it!

Is teradata worth joining right now?

I've heard that teradata has not been in a good shape on Glassdoor and I'm not exactly thrilled by the offer I got. The pay raise from where I'm at is solid but like 90% of my team is outsourced to India including my manager and they told me I'd be... — read more 

Leave if you can

I used to think things would get better if I just hung in long enough. Turns out the truth is, you wake up one day and realize years have passed and nothing’s changed. Sadly, you don’t grow here, you just survive. It’s not worth the mental toll. If... — read more 

Sumeet is pushing for a RTO mandate

In case you haven't heard, this 4'10" johnny-come-lately has been working tirelessly with HR get people back into the office. I have it on good authority that the RTO mandate will get enacted sometime in late August. If you live anywhere near a TD... — read more 

Gone the times when the whole company…

…was working hard at the end of a quarter. These days the CEO along with some key figures are OOO. Must be a great quarter then with early successful deals closing?

Extremely challenging but not desesperate

To survive and thrive, Teradata must continue its pivot from appliance-based legacy to cloud-first, AI-infused platforms — and win the mindshare war it’s currently losing.

WHERE TD STANDS UN MY VIEW

🔹 Sting or Weak? Moderate sting. Teradata is not a weak player — it’s solid, especially in large-scale enterprise data warehousing and analytics. It still stings in use cases requiring: • High concurrency • Complex SQL workloads • Integrated... — read more 

It's Time for Teradata to look at the Data....

The company has been in decline for a number of years. That should partly be blamed on the product but dig deeper and identify the other constant. With a last in first out policy, recent hires who have not created the negative impact on existing... — read more 

Most recent RIF Headcount?

How many people were laid off in the June sweep, all salespeople or others affected? Glad to be with a competitor!

Must be good to the big guy’s buddy

The new cost cutter is getting an inducement award to board the sinking ship. The awards were made pursuant to Teradata’s previously announced 2025 New Employee Stock Inducement Plan (“NESIP”) and as a material inducement to Mr. Rogers joining... — read more 

Time for Evan Randall to fall in his sword

After leading a disastrous systems 'upgrade' (Optimus Prime?! What are we? 12yo?) and with a disorganized and dispirited workforce that he rarely communicates with in any meaningful way, its time to see if others can do better. At the very least, we... — read more 

Layoffs in India and Pakistan

A lot of people in India and Pakistan who were not billable or working on internal non revenue generating projects were let go. This ship is sinking fast.

“Winner’s Circle” - really?

Teradata having a celebration event is like the Colorado Rockies celebrating their star players. And flying them to Rome? Shows how out of touch and privileged the ELT is. I guess there is an award for who’s revenue shrunk the least.

Finally!

That embarrassment of a CMO is gone and off the website. I imagine Marketing types globally are dancing in the streets.

So unprofessional

Managers here don’t manage anything. My boss doesn’t even know my name, doesn’t train me, and doesn’t care. I ask for help and get ignored. What’s the point? I’m young, not stupid. This isn’t how you run a business. I already have two interviews... — read more 

lake offering and its architects

Lake is what ultimately led to the company’s downfall. Six years of investment driven by HA, TM, and DS yielded no revenue. It’s disheartening to see Teradata—once the undisputed leader in data warehousing—reduced to this.

CxO shake out

Shake out CxO, re org here and there to distraction from core issues, bring buddies from previous companies . Same pattern everywhere and every time

If you've been laid off...

It's ok to feel bad. Despite what some ungrateful individuals might say on here, it's never a joyous occasion to find yourself out of a job. Best of luck on your job search.

How do you survive the RIF

In sales it's all self evident really. Look around you, you will see people that have survived the RIF action YOY. Survival is not always down their capability...it's about several things and they have got it down to an art. Firstly, make sure you... — read more 

Time to reflect...but will they?

As the inevitable looms for many at TD across the globe, will those fortunate sales people who have avoided the cull year on year self reflect and acknowledge they could have and should have done more. I see from a recent post, Sales were... — read more 

Deep regrets

Good luck, TD. But I fear it's too late now. When I worked there years ago, I remember the CTO — in his Hawaiian shirt — confidently denying the relevance of Cloud technology, while senior Solution Architects nodded along like it was gospel. I felt... — read more 

Large scale layoffs this month and next

Tools down guys, first round June and second round July. AEs with no pipeline, overlays and underperforming BUs are gone first then marketing. Deeper cuts in July. Reliable senior source. Stop working now and get your CV out. The ELT has gone too... — read more 

There comes a point when you just stop caring

I’ve worked myself into the ground trying to prove I’m enough, and for what? To be ignored while others coast by on favoritism? I’m done chasing approval from people who never intended to give it. From now on, let them complain. I won’t be bending... — read more
