Pros

Open Text is a large company with good cash flow and has good internal systems and a vision for the future.

Cons

Open Text has absolutely no heart when it comes to employees. They treated me like a number and no regards for time invested in growing their company. I was appalled at the way that they make decisions without regard for input by those who actually know what's going on in the real world.

Pros

You get a paycheck. Some of the people are nice but don’t trust anyone.

Cons

Exec leadership is awful. Always putting out the positive party line but it is all lies. Products are so far behind competitors. No investment in product or marketing. Senior executive leadership team shuffles around their “good old boy” comrades to new roles instead of retiring them or holding them accountable. The internal politics with everyone back stabbing each other to manage up and keep their jobs. Leadership is just doing what the board chair tells them to do. It is all about self promotion vs doing the job. They like to blame the previous CEO but he has been gone a year and it has only gotten worse. OpenText likes to brand itself as top company to work for , I say STAY AWAY!
