Pros

Many talented, experienced folks on the sales team. Plenty of support for you if you are out there trying to sell. Pay is competitive, benefits are decent and you are given the tools and flexibility you need to do your job.

Cons

For an Enterprise Information Management company, it can be surprisingly difficult to find information when you need it. This is mostly due to the number of acquisitions lately and integrating their systems and processes. Speaking of - OpenText is very process heavy and that can be a hurdle at times.

Pros

Many employees are able to work from a home office with little micro-managing if they are achieving their objectives and goals.

Cons

Since the OpenText acquisition significant cost-cutting and minimal raises. Can be a high-pressure environment when sales and management over-commit to win the deal.

Pros

competitive benefit packages and perks

Cons

Other companies offer better compensation packages now, causing employees to leave. Slowly becoming more and more like a call center with metrics that do not necessarily improve the customer experience but is only there to show as numbers for the upper management HR is incompetent. A member of the management can get away with using company name to borrow money from subordinates and not pay it back. HR would pretend to look into the issue without any action, giving the impression that such acts are tolerated. Support people are required to create tickets for everything, even for alerts that are dismissable - ticket farming. Teams are encouraged to do this to show their "productivity" in numbers (metrics), even if doing so puts most of their time in the ticket creation than on actually resolving customers issues.
