Usually they will be hissing, too. It means stay away. It's usually because you seem very very dangerous and threatening to the bird, or maybe it's something you've changed in your appearance. Painted nails or flashy clothes may be the problem. Or if the cockatiel has laid eggs and is next to them, it's just being protective of its offspring.

Why do cockatiel birds sit with their back to you?

It means it's frightened. A cockatiel sitting with its back to you is not usually frightened, as a frightened bird is more likely to flap and cower in a corner, keeping its eyes on you, rather than turning its back to you, which would render it vulnerable to predation. If a cockatiel sits with its back to you, it can mean the bird is distressed or ill. It can also mean the bird is, quite simply, sulking. Cockatiels bond strongly to their owners, and if a new pet is introduced, or something unusual happens in the household, a cockatiel will sometimes react in a seemingly human way - by sulking.
