Challenging, not in the good way - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Teradata

Constant shifting of priorities, management structure and initiatives. The sales and consulting teams are always changing so you never know who is who and what they're supposed to be doing. The policies and processes are mostly tribal knowledge and if you don't know it people will ignore you. The internal tools are as old and clunky as the processes. We call ourselves "agile" but that's not the truth. There's bad top-down leadership and organization which turns groups into silos which distrust each other. Nobody wants to make decisions because they worry if they mess up they will be held accountable. Regular layoffs and the lack of stability scare people into defending their job rather than stretching and risking to accomplish more. Certain pet projects get all the resources even if they haven't shown real success in years and have been redefined a bunch of times.
