When TDC drops another $2 it will be back where it started in 2007. 15 years squandered by vision less executives. CTO SB has been there the entire sad time. Why? This is a depressing, dying company who could not spell CLOUD and now it’s too late — read more 

At least 40 of the smartest are now working for real cloud companies. This ELT has not promoted from within, and have driven away the best employees by their lack of appreciation of talent. It is so much better once you are out of this dying... — read more

The ultimate measure of a firm’s success is stock price appreciation. In 15 growth years in the analytics industry Teradata stock has gone from high 20s in 2007 at spin off to low 30s now. All the celebration over a name change? If TDC was a... — read more

TD was actually a great workplace in the past. It is not easy to explain how in a relatively short period it became the exact opposite. What do you think are the critical points that brought this company down?

I hope there won't be any.

the two engineering SVPs are unable to figure how to manage out the innovator VP and their innovative DB. They are blind and deaf to customer feedback because they know better.

“I lie to myself all the time. But I never believe me.” Rather than face reality Teradata, it's just easier to lie yourself. "We are the top Data Warehouse according to Gartner", and "We are cheaper and better than Snowflake"

Game Over - Market Cap, SNOW $53B - TDC $3.8B, Revenue, SNOW Doubling Yearly, TDC Shrinking, New Customers, SNOW winning hundreds, TDC

NC is a genius, how many languages does he know? He actually has a strategy to decrease revenue. So glad we engaged McKinsey to save the company.

SM must have meant downward momentum. 12% drop in total revenue says it all. Blame the Putin Price Hike. This CEO is pathetic-his days are numbered. Bring VL back 😀

Great way to miss the worst results since 2010 and pretend they never happened….well, they never happened as far as Instagram is concerned so they can’t be true.

Heard that YA is leaving today...another SVP gone. Think they'll replace with another mck 'expert'?
