Thread regarding Teradata Corp. layoffs

Plus, the India developers are weak, cr-ppy and untested. They use customers for QA and scale.

Pls, the CPO is a DEI r_tard that doesn't know what the product does. Long live the mainframe, it will save Teradud.

Being generously kicked off from TD after years of intense and loyal service is definitely one of the greatest events that happened in my life 🙏🏼
TD, a dominant, breakthrough, awesome 90´s market leader is dying. Last convulsions. Data Science has shifted to much more exciting technology than what TD actually offered. Catching up is too late. Window of opportunity yet largely opened in 2017 is closed and locked 🔒 .
A blind, deaf and bewildered CTO has boldly lead TD to Death Valley. Sad ! TD is disappearing; long life to Cloud and Modern Data Architecture.
Show goes on ..and beyond 💪🏼👍🏼

We own the mainframe market. That’s it. Mainframe is our future so dust off the COBOL, JCL and VSAM manuals.

Teradud is the island of misfit toys. Get out while you can.

2024 will be the year of the firesale. As customers continue to migrate off, the board will get desperate to sell off whatever is remaining.

It's like seeing that product in the bargain bin at Walmart that no one wants. So you take it to the counter and ask for a further discount and something that was once worth $50 is now sold for $2.

I'm sure some of the Salespeople that were laid off had to deal with it more directly + can comment.

But, why would any business buy Teradata. It's legacy, it's weird, implementation + testing is high touch, competitors are fully cloud. The specific use cases where only solutions like Teradata make sense can be broken down and implemented more reliability and for less cost other ways. It just doesn't make sense.
