Pros

Good, knowledgeable people, innovative products, good management, good pay, good benefits

Cons

Little to no Loyalty to their employees. If they can save money by getting rid of your position and hiring 2-3 new engineers in a very low cost of labor area to replace you, they won't think twice about doing it. And yes, they actually expect you to train your replacements.

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!
