Pros

OK technology, expanding market space Good work - life balance. Good company if you want to make OK money, not advance and work only 9:00 - 5:00.

Cons

Complete old boys club and bully culture - CEO surrounded by yes MEN who follow orders. Managers are overworked and have little autonomy. Just follow orders environment. No travel, only online training prescribed by HR. Decent pay and benefits - no pension, awful stock purchase program. Poor maternity leave benefits given that we are not in the 1950s anymore.

Pros

Company seems sincere to be employee friendly and do show they care. Good recognition programs and their culture seems to be entrepreneurial. Work-life balance is good. technology stack is exiting and I think is well positioned for the future

Cons

Career growth may be limited, OpenText is composed of many small acquisitions and most location are too small to offer localized career growth. Salaries in my opinion seem to lag its peers in my region. Very cost conscious company, almost to an extreme. Almost no money is spent of employee development. Extremely hierarchical and almost everything required CEO approval

Good compensation with some very talented staff and people who will often go the extra mile, just not enough of them

Cons

No career support or growth, you're on your own! Poor HR and internal support, they are only interested in the companies interests, not it's employees Ever changing staff Lack of strong middle management and guidance especially if you work remotely.
