Pros

Diversity in the product portfolios in EIM domain and crave for adapting new technologies makes OT stand apart from other mid range product companies. Work-Life balance. 8:30-5:30 office timings. To-and-Fro transportation. As long as one contributes responsibly and more than reasonable, one doesn't need to look back.

Cons

Slightly micro management happens from leadership group

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.
