Can’t wait for the next all hands…
So that to be told by fake ELT smiling faces how great a place to work for this company is. Not and not.
Unemployment
Got laid off yesterday.. it's my first time and I am wondering about unemployment. Will Teradata contest it if I apply? Since I got a severance package am I ineligible? Also it sounds like even though I'm no longer actively working, I will stay on... — read more
Behind smoke and mirrors...
Which departments are most impacted?
More to come?
This is a complete mess. Some think that the impact this time was quite significant, but of course, no one has a clear idea about it because this company is totally non-transparent. Does anyone have any insight as to whether more is to come or is... — read more
more RiFs yesterday
Just when you think there is no one else to RIF anymore, ELT comes up with another list of mostly great folks in customer support, sales, engineering. Very hard to see these smart guys go, and instill fear in the remaining. The surviving... — read more

Enough with the TINO
We know you’re trying to be cute, but it’s now backfired. There is no credibility to any post (other than this one) using TINO. Just stop and post actual, thoughtful updates.
TINO RIF M.O. to watch out for - unsolicited skip level meeting
If an unsolicited skip level meeting with a TINO shows up on your calendar, decline or defer it until you get your affairs in order. TINOs want to be able to say they feel the pain but in reality they can care less. The managers are tired of doing... — read more

I bet the posts about TINO in every sentence is from a single guy. We are now into a TINO fatigue. I think I came across more TINO in this forum than hear Transformation word at work. Stop spamming unless you can say something without using TINO... — read more
Running a business on financial numbers leads to failure
Teradata was built on doing things the proper way, not the TINO way. Our founders knew what it meant to be a great company. They wanted to solve big problems and create a better world. Now the TINOs just want to build for the cloud, while listening... — read more
The cull in EMEA started…
Western Geo VP decided to retire in 3 (!) weeks without an announcement of his replacement. OK. Now let’s see if the the geo stays intact… More layoffs to come…
Lack of clear direction
Maybe I'm wrong, but it doesn't seem like Teradata has any clear direction anymore. What are the long-term and specific plans for this company? It is completely unclear where this company is going. This used to be an excellent workplace but the... — read more
ESG and your 401K - ELT can pick default for you

Scared straight - less knowledgeable people, more layoffs in 2023?
I've been here a few years and have seen my work getting more and more difficult because of less knowledgeable people around. The experts knew how things work and helped all of us to accomplish our tasks quickly. Now that there's less of them and... — read more
Another bang-up year?
How far down was 2022 revenue compared to 2021? Since we lose revenue every year, I’m hoping it’s not horrible.
Shame what the current ELT is doing to the company
The original founders (Schemer, Neches, Hartke, et al) would be DEEPLY embarrassed by the total ineptitude of the management team (don't call them leaders) and Board. The founders maxed-out their credit cards to start a company that showed 3 years of... — read more
Poor place to work

Why TINOs like RIFs?
TINOs are reinventing the wheel and afraid if anyone knowledgeable hold them accountable for putting out the fire they started. They get to look good and collect big bonuses for doing nothing but set the company back a decade. So no one that knows... — read more
Recent Xmas gathering - how was it?
They asked for us to reply if we would attend the Dec 15 gathering north of HQ. I did not because it's no time to celebrate and it would just be TINOs doing their monthly visit, some lip service to string us along, deny any RIF happened, and spend... — read more
