Teradata Applications - Ok place to work

Business Outlook

Pros

My current manager is a great manager, but he has little control over the negatives faced at this company. It is a job that pays the bills.

Cons

Upper management seems clueless as to how to improve our products or manage a software company, and the mass exodus of talent and stock drop are evidence of this. They pay below the industry average for software developers. Poor project management results in an expectation of long weeks and weekends for the developers. There is virtually no path to promotion, and no merit increase above 1.5%, if at all. There is no innovation in the technology.

Decent company for what it is, but plenty of room for improvement

Business Outlook

Pros

Very conservative company that is profitable overall. Some good challenges as they try to modernize their software and processes. Remember though that Teradata is an Analytics and Applications company and it is the Applications side that struggles a bit.

Cons

As with any job, it is as good as your manager and some are great and some have some learning curve. I always found it was difficult to find fulfilling work based on my experience. It is a big company, so lots of slowness abounds.
