Pros

Good Technology, Good People, flexible work environment(tele-commute, dress, hours). Other than than it is down hill from here.

Cons

So many but here is the biggest. OpenText is a cancer, it eats companies through acquisitions. Then slowing kills everything good about that company. Benefits and perks are reduced after a year from the acquisition. 401k dropped to 1% match but they word it as 25% up to 4% because they now just saying 1% is horrible. Everything is monitored and scrutinized, from expense reporting to the number of times you use your badge to get into the building. They are extremely cheap, went 3 years without a raise but the company was growing 25% year over year.

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!
