      Pros

      The people on the team are great to work with. They are collaborative and helpful Good Base pay Job stability - You can stay in sales even if you don't close any deals for a year Compliance is the best/one of the only ways to close a deal Good stock plan

      Cons

      It is the hardest company I have ever been at the close a deal. You have to jump through hoops and connect with teams to get the deal across the line. Even if you have a PO you still have challenges closing a deal. The partner team is awful. There are not many partners available for security in the traditional sense. They have to go through a distributor and they are difficult to work with. The products are terribly aged and not great. The greatest company no one has ever heard of. Compliance is the only/one of the only ways to close a deal. People sit around waiting for compliance and no one ever hits their numbers. You are only really making your base salary Compliance team is not great to work with

      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!
