Too many managers, too few leaders, less and less workers. It's Teradata. Too many bosses spoil the broth. I believe this would be a much better company if there were fewer of them. Do we have to have that many? What do you think, how many of those managers at TD aren’t really of any use?

Most of the Product Management managers are yes people. I never see them challenge HA. I don’t think she really knows how bad the product really is. Or she is in denial. And SM is so enthralled with Diversity he is out of touch with the issues.
Managers (especially dev managers) at TD are scared to change. The only thing they're good at is getting defensive. Toxic environment in every department but PE is the worst. It's time for a shakeup.
Most anyone director and above is useless. Marketing is useless. But Teradata can last a long time just sucking down resources.
One new VP or AVP or SVP joining every week .. 2 devs from some team leaving every week :( not sure what is happening
