Pros

OpenText offers a stable work environment with solid benefits and a strong global presence. The company has a broad portfolio of enterprise products, which gives employees exposure to large-scale, complex projects. Work-life balance is generally reasonable depending on the team, and there are opportunities to collaborate with knowledgeable and experienced colleagues. The company is also well-established in the enterprise information management space, which provides a sense of job security.

Cons

The organization can feel quite hierarchical and slow-moving, especially when it comes to decision-making and adopting new technologies. Internal processes are often complex and sometimes inefficient, which can impact productivity. Career growth opportunities exist but may require patience and proactive effort, as advancement isn’t always clearly structured. Communication between leadership and teams can also be inconsistent at times.

Pros

Pros was that you had a job (and not for long if they find a way to outsource your position in the company).

Cons

Cons are so many to list, but from the leadership in this company being so out of touch with his/her employees, the restructuring done in their company to save some bucks on their end was crazy brutal, firing all of their talented workers to implement automated programs that did not function properly. Overall, horrible experience with OpenText, lies upon lies when it came to growth opportunities and keeping teams in the dark, no communication what so ever. Their business practices were just plain terrible.
