Pros

no redeeming qualities at all.

Cons

Think if everything an employer could to to make employees miserable and this place does it. Poor leadership, check. Absolutely terrible benefits, check. Lower than average pay, check. Laughingly small pay raises, check. Lack of room for growth, check. Also add in that OT acts more like a private equity company instead of a technology company and you get one gigantic disaster for your career. OT is well known as the place "where technology and career's go to die". I've seen it first hand and the only way my career will survive is to leave.

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!
