OpenText Principal Software Engineer reviews

No option for work from home. It is highly discouraged. You are thrown around from project to project at random. High pressure due to short 2 week sprints. Cost cutting in every thing imaginable. Cutting down team sizes to squeeze maximum work.

1. Existing employees loosing trust and too much attrition from last 1-2 years. 2. People looking for change outside are also not preferring opentext. Too many walk-ins happening for developers. But none turning up for interviews. 3. Variable pay is cut short though company is making profits. 4. Very less pay compared to other product based companies. 5. Cafeteria is very small and only single vendor who serves worst food at high prices. 6. Very less or negligible hike. 7. Too many acquisitions and organizational changes. 8. No WFH options, stocks, performance bonus as compared to other product based companies. 9. Trying to get work done by experienced employees with interns or freshers. 10. Too many products with just 10-12 people working for single product. Not many features are delivered for every release. 11. Follows agile but hardly 1-2 releases per year for single product
