Pros

Overall, the experience is good at OpenText and its subsidiaries if you have good direct management. There are no Pros here, it's just a job and good enough at that. Mainly commenting on Opentext company specifically. Diversity is getting better

Cons

- CEO against fully remote work - Health packages are well below industry average - Compensation below industry average - Culture WELL below industry average due to continuous acquisitions - Benefits and PTO below average - Promotion below average - Company hates spending money on their employees. STINGY would be a good word for this - Leadership at the C-level is alright. Mark and Muhi are the only one who provides a sense of vision and leadership, even then it's JUST their business vision that's great. They do not have the best interest in their employees and we are viewed as a corporate number. - You get your typical corporate experience

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!
