Pros

Smart SC's. Ops, deal desk, legal.

Cons

SAP relationship takes $$$ out of your pocket. No value from any executives except for EVP of Engineering, partner ecosystem has been slashed, no relationships with even SAP, CEO calls you directly for deal status's and doesn't follow chain of command, too many different account planning templates, worksheets, deal review forms that NOBODY reads. A players don't last here long!

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.
