Pros

If you like challenges and to be part of a technical innovation team then Teradata is the place. Highly skilled colleagues with open and supporting mindset is the foundation for a workplace where you can grow and develop in the areas of your interests. This is the kind of workplace Teradata is. Very limited career management makes it possible to focus on developing specialist competence in many areas. Teradata is a multicultural organisation and enables many possibilities to exchange experiences around the globe.

Cons

Very limited career management. The traditional career ladder is not in focus. Almost impossible to find internal information unless you know the informal ways.

Teradata Response

First, congratulations on your 10+ years with Teradata! We really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts on working here. Also, on the feedback and advice you've provided - thank you.
