Certainly, skill development is not something that depends on the company but on the individual, however some companies encourage it more than others. I wonder how much room you had here for your own skill growth? After being laid off from... — read more 

Folks, were you able to find a job after being kicked to the curb by Teradata? I'm talking about the latest round. Because I keep hitting a wall and I'm now slowly starting to panic. Getting an interview is nearly impossible and the few times I... — read more 

I thought there were supposed to be some layoffs before the end of the month, what happened there? Is it still a possibility or has that rumor been debunked?

The TDC share price has almost doubled in a week, it is now reaching $ 50. What the heck is going on ? Has it turned out that Teradata has a fantastic management and leadership team ? Was TDC just too undervalued in comparison with Snowflake ?... — read more 

Are we finally on track to compete with Snowflake head to head and go beyond >10B valuation? Ofcourse I missed the rally.

The only people on this site must be from the NCR days, relegated to obscurity Can't wait to see what else you complain about as cloud profitability unfolds Keep complaining about hardware RIFs and generous early retirements, thanks

I can't wait to walk out of this place with a nice safety net. I think we are at the point where most of the people are hoping and praying to be laid off instead of being worried about it. Can you imagine how much you have to screw up as a leader for... — read more

It's not like this stock to pop 10% in two days. What's the rumor? New customers seem to be scarce and product iffy.

Interesting article on Teradata's performance and its ROCE If you dig a bit deeper, suggestions are 'earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 31.4% per year for the next 3... — read more 

TD made a Vantage on the cloud announcement. Does anyone care?

As this is an option now... Could you share the thinking behind this decision?

While you worry about your survival, rest assured the ELT are being taken care of. https://apple.news/Afuhh8geKRQ67Zn8KQa65Ug

It is pretty clear that we are all just a head to be cut regardless of performance. Is there any reason we shouldn't unionize like google did?

Now that the I have been here since before NCR crew is finally leaving, what are the odds that we get bought?

Should we warn them?

The word is that it might be either in the late December or in early January and it will involve operations (finance, accounting, deal desk). Anyone heard the same?

I sure don’t see anything supporting a rise.

There doesn’t seem to be a reason...

Now they can hire clueless junior people cheaper to continue the downward spiral of what was once a great company with the best product capabilities. Now you have software that doesn’t perform and is full of empty promises; just like Teradata ELT... — read more 

I just read a post on LinkedIn that AWS is partnering with BMW to 'to Accelerate Data-Driven Innovation' https://www.press.bmwgroup.com/global/article/detail/T0322118EN/aws-and-bmw-group-team-up-to-accelerate-data-driven-innovation Teradata have... — read more 

While visiting Linkedin, it looks like the “Teradata lays off only to turn around to kick off a hiring surge” comments made here are true? Why discard existing talent for “budget reasons” only to re-hire “like” positions?

I challenge KCC and the rest of the politically frenzied, self centered ELT to attend the Factory training and pass a certification fair and square. Sweat the brow. Understand what makes us great. Touch and feel engineering, respect it. Don't act... — read more 

The earlier funny post about TD bending backwards, appears deleted. TheLayoff are you censoring content? Do we need to distribute messages underhand, peer to peer, now?

Teradata’s realistic prospects are dim. So how will it end? I doubt any rational company would buy us. We’re losing market share and the technology race. We’re laying off the qualified and experienced people and leaving the buttkissing clueless... — read more

Thoughts? Any Teradata Layoffs 2021? Any news or rumors?

No relevancy. Nor pharma nor shipping interested in what we have to say. ELT members should take full ownership of this. More to come
