Pros

OpenTex allows for remote employees if you are hired through an acquisition (which many/most are) and they generally, for Marketing, don't lay off employees - they keep the marketers who can market/sell the products and are domain experts.

Cons

Lack of communication from the executive team. Very hierarchical. The Marketing team leadership in NA was a challenge to work with and there was competing agendas between the Global Marketing teams.

Pros

While they claim to be "pro-employee" they are very much pro-Canadian employee. As long as you are a Canadian, your job should be safe. And US based role is in jeopardy.

Cons

Laying off all Americans. I do not see relevant data on location based statistics for the last 4 rounds of layoffs. The bulk of the "trimming" has been based in US. This is cost savings. Additionally, they post US based jobs for 24 hours then pull those and post H1B notifications that they could not find equivalent US resources and need to outsource for cheaper money.
