Pros
The office is aesthetically pleasing. There are a few people there that are great to work with. The Paris office is an ideal environment for freemasons as middle and upper management prefer to hire from this network. OpenText is doing quite a bit of hiring so a place to spend a short time to get experience with ECM. The coffee is free and they have some free snacks in the kitchen.
Cons
An abusive and hostile work environment exists that is cultivated by GXS and several middle-managers in order to shed experienced OpenText employees. Sales prospects are nil. The only activities going on are to support existing customers on legacy platforms. A dreary and depressing work environment with very little projects to work on. From unhappy employees to very unhappy customers this company is not a good place to work. It's likely that OpenText will be acquired in the next FY. If there is no acquisition soon, the company will continue to lose good people and customers. Product engineering is focused on "lipstick on a pig" approach with no true innovation simply working on bolt-on integration and new UX layer. Core technology and functionality is very old school, bulky, and overly complex.
