Petty management

I work at Teradata full-time. It’s a great job if you enjoy traveling or want to get your feet wet. That aside, Management leaves a lot to be desired. There is an undeniable shortage of training in their position, coupled with their lack of people... — read more

Seriously, why is change such a bad word here? Why is it still acceptable in this day and age to continue doing things that can be improved so easily the same old way just because those near the top who've been with Teradata for several decades... — read more

No more accrued vacation time starting on January 2018. The new business strategy is to keep the teams perpetually understaffed and so it will be difficult to take vacation.

Anybody else noticed how they no longer use terms like layoffs, instead they just announce reorganizations and start letting people go. I guess it has a better ring to it, and it keeps employees from getting too worked up about it. I will not even go... — read more

Teradata should fire all the VP's who haven't produced anything for the past 20 quarters. For a company that has less than 2.5B in revenue we have too many VP's.
