Pros

good salary office free cab facility, food and snaks

Cons

unexpected layoffs, i joined in july 2025 and worked in opentext for 8 month and was layedoff. the non professional way of handling a layoff will realy hit you, one fine day they'll call you with manager , amanagers manager and an hr, the unprofessional way of conveying this to you is so bad, i wa stold my managers that as part if org resturcturing my role is effect and layoff, the hr was like in the call itself give us a mail in writting taht you are rresigning on your own if so yo will get a 1 month extra pay as compensation and a experience letter, else they will ahve to send a terminationm letter without an extra month alary, that too we have to decide within the meeting room for in person and in the calll for the employee connecting remotely
