Jan 9 2018 - $700 million tax benefit received by Micro Focus turns up in article, CFO mentioned that to investors 8. Jan 15 2018 - Announced Thousands of employees receive $0 bonus I will say that I really enjoy my coworkers. There is a decent work-life balance, however, at the end of the day you need to have the financial stuff taken care. Hence, all categories get 1 star.

Cons

This has been hard for employees families. Mission statement that CEO wants everyone to know mentions nothing about employees.
