Pros

Non. I would not recommend a friend work here

Cons

Management egos from executive level to director. Instead of establishing a good structure they will try already failed projects again without changes. 90% of management has failed up. Stick around and with no experience you can lead and create a terrible team atmosphere without consequence. Accountability is nowhere to be found. CEO is also the CTO, lack of understanding of decentralized command. Would rather focus on virtue signaling woke agendas than focus on failing business units. They will give you a promotion and pay raise but you will have 3+ months of new responsibility before the salary is given.

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!
