Pros

No Pros. I feel disappointing.

Cons

After acquiring the Microfocus, the relaxed and pleasant corporate culture of the original company was destroyed. They forced you back to office. Approved relocation plan was destroyed. Internal company mails are filled with photos of major VPs. It gave me the illusion that I was working in a TV entertainment company.

Thank you for your feedback. Over time, we have seen that while virtual work has undeniable benefits, coming into the office brings about more creativity, innovation and collaboration. We remain flexible and there is also a process for colleagues to request becoming remote workers.

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!
