Pluspunten
-They have the best Datawarehouse in the business -They have some really smart people -They just got viable cloud solutions up and available -They are moving away from hardware as the driver People talk about layoffs, and I have heard of them from 2nd hand sources. I can say that most of the people I respect in the organization are still here, and that I personally got a promotion in the last review cycle.
Minpunten
-CIOs are afraid to invest in DWH infrastructure, as the industry rags have convinced them Hadoop will replace everything. The prospect is dubious, but the impact is real. -People are starting to think of TD as "old technology" in the valley. It's kind of like trying to sell the F-22 Raptor to a client who thinks drones are the future. -Gut HR -It is a catch-22 to get your consultants first hand Hadoop experience.
