Pros
The worker bees! I was a manager there and it had some of the most loyal, dedicated employees. Also, some of the people I met in different groups and orgs who's actually cared about their employees, where some of the hardest and smarted people I have had the pleasure to work with.
Cons
I have been in the industry since 1997 and have worked for some of the biggest companies out. Every company has it's pockets of bad management but Teradata R&D facility in SD some of the worst management ever!!!! The problem is it runs deep from the CIO to the first line management! And if you don't adopt their harassing fear management style, then you singled out! As a manager, they purposely picked out people and ran them out, they worked nonexempt employees overtime without pay and told him if he reports more time, he is slow and would always threaten him with being replaced, told an employee when he returned who was out on sick leave with cancer, that his job was at risk unless he produced more, told another employee he couldn't use his vacation time to assist his wife with cancer, hired a contractor who worked his butt off for a yr and went he needed 3 months to finish his degree because his counselor missed a class he needed, they fired him and banned him from working there... I can go on and on about the terrible treatment of their employees at the bottom but I think you get the picture. As long as their HR sits back and supports this behavior they will continue to run this Oligarchy unless someone sues!!!!
