Thread regarding Teradata Corp. layoffs

A so happy divorce

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 πŸ™πŸΌ
TD, a dominant, breakthrough, awesome 90Β΄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 πŸ”’ .
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 πŸ’ͺπŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌ

spent most R&D dollars on Aster and machine learning that nobody wanted. should have spent 100% on cloud. can't undo it now. a Harvard case study in the making.

Missed the boat in 2017 and will never regain what has been lost. Led by a chorus of inexperienced and out of touch ELT who think they are innovators we now face the cliff of destruction.

All I can say to my colleagues is to sharpen up your industry skills, get your resume in order as 2024 is not going to be a good year.

Not surprising, especially in engineering. Starting at SVP and VP levels, they know you are right but feel threaten, will get rid of you and take your ideas.

I noticed on LinkedIn a job post for my old position at Teradata.

I guess the incompetent female H1b that I was fored to train must have jumped ship.

Funny to see that all the initiatives I was pushing for when laid off are in the job description.
