Pros

1. Free breakfast and lunch 2. No matter if you finish your work or not, No one escalate until customer asks

Cons

1. Legacy technology all over bangalore and they say that "You just name the technology and we have it in our team" during interview process. Many applications still use Primefaces,GWT,JSP, Closure framework, Dropwizard 2. No one cares weather you stay or not 3. No internal job switching. they say during interview process that we are flexible 4. They don't show any respect employees and they don't even ask why u r leaving. Even there is no HR discussion. Worst HR management.

Pros

You get a paycheck. Some of the people are nice but don’t trust anyone.

Cons

Exec leadership is awful. Always putting out the positive party line but it is all lies. Products are so far behind competitors. No investment in product or marketing. Senior executive leadership team shuffles around their “good old boy” comrades to new roles instead of retiring them or holding them accountable. The internal politics with everyone back stabbing each other to manage up and keep their jobs. Leadership is just doing what the board chair tells them to do. It is all about self promotion vs doing the job. They like to blame the previous CEO but he has been gone a year and it has only gotten worse. OpenText likes to brand itself as top company to work for , I say STAY AWAY!
