Thread regarding Talend layoffs

Good luck with Thoma Bravo

Saw the news in Talend and TB taking the company private. As a person who works for a TB-owned company, all I can say is good luck! TB is there to make “returns” for their clients and not Talend. They will tout how they helped Dynatrace go IPO again, just not true. DT and the market shifted in their favor, TB got lucky. They will push their agenda by either planting executive leadership or partaking in executive leadership search. They are looking for leaders who will listen to them only while staring their employees in the face and either lie or ignore people/company needs.

TB is founded by rich immigrants who plays it safe by stripping run rate revenue, laying off to cover cash flow differences, forcing companies to go into structured debt and basically spiral towards corporate death. Good luck, TB lies so don’t believe a word out of their mouths. Unless the market shifts in your favor, expect TB to see you as their piggy bank where you better be putting every nickel into it.

Had a review of the Talend financial statements. Although growing top line revenue (good) the last few years, they are continually losing money (negative EBITDA). I hate to say it but Thoma Bravo is gonna come in hacking and slashing to get that EBITDA to a positive number. Get your resume ready.
