Stock in a freefall since Q2 report.

TDC stock took a big nose dive today—down almost 17% at close. Something tells me ELT isn’t so smug today. Is it “Possible” investors realize that shifting money to ARR with zero new customers and a drop in overall revenue means a company is in... — read more 

Q2 Earnings...

Rumor is TD will report a good quarter next week. Anyone want to wager me TD will beat the street estimates?

Non-technical management

We constantly have problems due to our non-technical management. It is impossible to communicate with those people. They just don't understand. How often do you encounter problems precisely because of this? It's a constant source of... — read more 

Mad number of marketing folks leaving

I've been seeing people leave from the marketing organisation and announcing on linkedin - concerning that our old timers and people who know the company best are all leaving for greener pasture..

Don’t buy analytics. Buy fuel.

Yikes. Looks like the new Possible strategy is to cram a bunch of marketing phrases together and hope no one notices there’s no substance. “Fuel the future”? What does that even mean? Maybe we can tell companies don’t buy analytics, buy fuel. Have... — read more 

Live broadcast!

All the bu-t kissers are just gobbling up this “partnership” with Microsoft. I wonder how excited they’ll be when their layoff hits? It’s true that the best have already left. I just need six months! Then I retire.

A Possible disaster?

Possible kicks off next month. Is JW taking a “put it on and people will show up” approach that doesn’t require marketing? The site still doesn’t have a detailed agenda or even speakers. Does anyone truly think people want to register to attend a TD... — read more 

I don't get you

If you hate TD so much that you can't accept it when it's doing well - objectively! - and have to find ways to make it seem like it's failing, why in the world are you still here??? For the sake of your own mental health, quit and join another... — read more

Why does it take the “#1 analytics company” five weeks to report financials?

Things you learn in TD marketing

Bootlicking is a prerequisite for being a VP and is more important than talent JW places more value on her hairdresser than her marketing staff ZR can’t run a meeting without stumbling and bumbling his way through with incoherent comments AO says “I... — read more 

Fortunately, there are many other options

Perhaps I would stay here a little longer if there weren't many other options out there. However, since there are currently many openings, there is no point in staying here any longer. Those who say they can't get a better offer, I don't believe... — read more 

Lolzzzz! How can people vote for trust at TD?

What am I missing? Time after time the LT breaks trust by saying one thing in Hands All meetings and then following up with exact opposite actions... just a few weeks ago it was all so rosy (best q results blah-blah-blah, green all over), only to... — read more 

The stock market is delusional

So lets understand this. Teradata just axed all of their sales staff responsible for new customers. So there is no growth at all from new customers (because there are no new customers). Existing customers continue to slowly offload workloads to... — read more 

How to stick around at Teradata?

Attend all DEI trainings. Be an active member of all the DEI groups. Dye your hair rainbow-colored. Hang out with ELT members in corporate events. Dance like nobody's watching whenever they play any song at any company event that you're... — read more 

Is it hard to find a new job?

I noticed people who no longer work at TD popping up on this forum, so I thought I'd throw this question out there. For those who were laid off, how tough was it to land a new gig? Especially considering everything that's been going on this year? I'm... — read more 

The purge has begun!

With the recent departure of CM in APJ, it seems the purge against those who spoke out against her has begun with a SD given their marching orders. And in return they reward a loyal lieutenant of CM. It hasn't taken too long, only a few weeks for the... — read more 

Nothing can save TD

I dont think theres anything that can save Teradata. They've laid off the people that could have made changes. Multiple times! ELT is poor + only concerned about cashing out stock. On top of all that the Board must be asleep at the wheel because if... — read more 

Public Service for Anyone Considering Teradata

I joined Teradata as Senior Director and stayed for more than half a year when I was laid-off. I have already moved on, but I keep seeing people celebrating getting hired by Teradata on LinkedIn. So, I figured I would be just an accomplice if I let... — read more
