Pros

Weekends and holidays off. Oh, and you only spend 8 hours a day there.

Cons

Hostile work environment created by management, no incentive to do well as you'll never achieve the ridiculous bonus structure they've created (that they also can't explain to you), no true sense of leadership or direction, you'll spend most of your day being broken down, prodded and picked apart. Favoritism is a big issue and you have no creative freedom. If you can't become a clone of someone else on the team they like, there's no use for you. They'll claim to be "helping you out" but really are just covering their own backsides. Don't expect any career growth or advancement no matter how well you perform... they will ALWAYS find something to hold you back. If you are driven by moving up the ladder and jump-starting a career, definitely look elsewhere. There are a lot of fake reviews on here to make the job seem slightly better than what it is, but believe me when I say; If you work here, you will almost immediately regret your decision. You will be treated less than and punished for asking questions.

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.
