Pros

Decent benefits, 3 weeks vacation to start, pleasant colleagues, ability to work from home sometimes.....not a whole lot else to say.

Cons

Constant acquisitions, layoffs, no stability. A lot is expected out of you, they pile work onto you loading you up till you can't handle it no more, but other than a pat on the back never compensated. Forget about getting a raise, it's a joke. If you're one of the few lucky ones who get it, it's bare minimum at best. So you better be happy with the salary you are given when you start. A lot of yes people trying to please the people at the top.

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!
