OpenText reviews

You can do very little work without any consequences. Mark++ always finds ways to remind us he had cancer. The company pays for useless guest speakers that cultist, religious or the extremely wealthy find enjoyment. In 2020, they let go 600 employees out of fear of the pandemic. This was unwarranted. Then they hired a "nutritionist" and a "trainer" for the company so we could stay "healthy at home". They also cut salaries for at least six months, though that was mostly paid that back to employees that were kept. However, OpenText claimed to have had record profit/revenue, as they do every year, which is not surprising if you cut jobs and salaries. Then Mark++ announced we had over 800 positions open. Gee, I wonder how... Worst of all, you are not valued for your contributions unless you have an experienced manager, or are on an important team like engineering or product development. Upper management lies to customers and bend over backwards; they have no backbone. Promotions do not exist. Your title does not dictate your pay, your pay dictates your title. I know employees that are very intelligent and put in more effort than 90% of the team and are worth L2 or L3 pay, but because they are at the median L1 or L2 pay they have to wait for many 1-5% performance review increases until they can be considered the next level title. Unbelievable. Don't even get me started on the "Center of Excellence". The majority are incompetent and unable to provide any real value, but cheap labor is all the rage right now. They cause more headaches and rework than anything, and guess who is responsible for fixing it all?
