Worst management and dirty politics they do quarterly lay-offs,if you see the trend even ceo and higher management people change quarterly,they removed more than 800 employees in March 2026 who did really perform well and got good performance ratings in recent appraisal,and they have a plan in coming June 2026 with a big number, kindly do due diligence before joining Opentext

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!
