Pros

Great colleagues on my team

Cons

I wish I didn’t even have to give a one star rating. This place is awful Every decision is made at the whim of the CEO ( who thinks he is infallible) Focus changes often, based on what the CEOs current bandwagon idea is If you want to be a direct contributor to the success of a company and feel good about your job and career then this is not the place for you- here you are just a number.

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!
