Pros

Interns & freshers get nice pay. Lateral joinee can get any amount they ask. Gym reimbursement(upto 12k)

Cons

No work from home option. Strict 9-5 timing Don't expect any hike Most of the projects are support and legacy projects. you will be busy full day but you don't learn anything new. Very bad management. They can take any decisions and implement overnight. Small food court Very less paid to existing employee No mbo payment on time Hike is getting pushed a lot higher management doesn't have correct idea what to do... They keep changing the plans which is affecting employees badly They can hire people even without interview. No cab facility

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!
