Pros

Your co-workers will be supportive, and if you are lucky you will find yourself in a hierarchy that knows how to manage people...

Cons

Senior management is disconnected, and cold. Mid-management is simply incompetent. Organizations are often silo'd, but OpenText is on another level. Bullying and doctorial management seems common. I have never been spoken to at any organization in the manner I was at OpenText and have it supported by my management.

Pros

While they claim to be "pro-employee" they are very much pro-Canadian employee. As long as you are a Canadian, your job should be safe. And US based role is in jeopardy.

Cons

Laying off all Americans. I do not see relevant data on location based statistics for the last 4 rounds of layoffs. The bulk of the "trimming" has been based in US. This is cost savings. Additionally, they post US based jobs for 24 hours then pull those and post H1B notifications that they could not find equivalent US resources and need to outsource for cheaper money.
