Pros

Strong history, strong name. Have a good PR/corporate marketing team and are good at playing the analyst game. When upper management decides that something is a priority they are good at moving quickly and shooting from the hip in that particular thing.

Cons

Most decisions are made two levels above where they should be. (e.g. Very top heavy strategy/decision making culture) Now 3 years without no compensation increases (not even standard of living) which ends up being significant because of recent inflation,

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!
