Pros

Dear, You name it - a great place if you are a high ranking manager. If not, you are an interchangeable number only, with little to no pay rise, never the chance to travel since there are often freezes, no incentives or support for public transport, the OpenText discount program is limited to free AntiVirus software, which is scrappy, HUP Software from Microsoft, and Dell Computers for those who work in USA. Hotel Bonus? Where? On which intranet page can I apply for it? Educational support - I personally applied two times for it, refused with stupid excuses.

Cons

Too many. Join OT and find out yourself.

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!
