Pros

Great people, strong enterprise customer base, and an excellent portfolio spanning AI, Cloud, Cybersecurity and Information Management. Flexible working arrangements and competitive benefits. Flexible and hybrid work environment with a good work life balance in many teams. Talented colleagues with deep technical and industry expertise. Opportunities to work across regions and collaborate with international teams. Competitive compensation and benefits, including employee stock purchase plan and wellness programs. Good autonomy for experienced employees with ownership of their work.

Cons

Like many large global organizations, there are frequent changes in priorities and organizational structure. Internal processes can sometimes be bureaucratic, and decision-making may take longer than expected. Greater clarity around strategy and career progression would further improve the employee experience.

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!
