It’s difficult to move up linearly but tons of opportunities for lateral movement within the company. Pay is slightly below my locality’s average for my job

Pros

Great team willing to help each other out. Great team Team Lead and First Line Manager that care about employees' growth and well being. Good benefits Good pay Vacation time

Cons

Micromanagement enforced by senior/upper management believing it increases productivity, which it doesn't. It only demotivates employees, burns them out, and causes them to leave. Work/life balance is almost non-existent. Senior/upper management expect their employees to work like robots 24/7. You have to set boundaries and commit to them. Otherwise, you are a goner. Team Lead and First Line Manager care about their employees, but everyone above them don't. Questionable/self-centered CEO that brags about being tech-smart just to make himself look smart and popular. Also overhypes political correctness believing that's the most important thing that a company can do to thrive. Yes, people deserve a chance, but he is overdoing it. Company says they are customer-friendly, but its far from the truth. They layoff people without any signs or warnings. They don't care about their employees. Yes, some companies do the same thing and often pretend like they care, but if OpenText claims to be different and better, they must start acting like it.
