Pros

Good direct teammates and manager

Cons

Raises are pretty much non-existent; there is no cost of living raise so you are basically losing money if you stay at this company. There is no reward for loyalty as you will be making less than the person you are training in no time while the CEO brags about how much money the company rakes in. There were record profits while everyone was working from home (while we all had to take a pay cut) but now everyone is required to go back to to office to be micromanaged. There are hiring freezes and layoff constantly so they can move jobs overseas. It's just like any other big corporate job. You are just a number that they don't actually care about.

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!
