Pros

World leader (or at least used to be)

Cons

Since acquisition of Think Big, c-suite has allowed those idiots to dismantle one of the greatest companies in the world. Think Big leadership has fired/pushed out all legacy Top Performers, publicity calling them “Tera-dactyls.” This is rich as that same set of leaders couldn’t find their fanny with both hands. This is proven out in the free fall in revenue since they came in.

Thank you for taking the time to comment. While we don’t agree with all your comments, there is some truth to the fact that we have hired a lot of new people into the organization. Like any company going through a business transformation, we have a mix of new hires and tenured employees, and they both bring significant value to our company and our customers. We cannot comment on Q4 earnings yet; however, we can point to a great Q3 as outlined on our Q3 earnings call. It’s not just the last quarter, our performance over the past three years in fact has been strong. Our latest quarterly results announced in December showed that 3Q18 revenue and profits were up, but more significantly our subscription-based revenue was much higher than we originally projected. Both 1Q18 and 2Q18 were strong, as well (complete FY 2018 results will be announced in early February 2019). Anyone may view our financial reports and investor analyses on https://teradata.com to get the most complete and accurate picture of our performance. With our new brand launch in October 2018, we believe Teradata is poised at the beginning of an exciting new segment of our journey to rise above as the leader in Pervasive Data Intelligence™. We wish you well in your future career endeavors.
