Pros

One can get lost in this mess of a company. How the CEO survives is a question many employees have had for a long while.

Cons

CEO decides based on the algorithms in his head what he feels should or should not be paid. In the public eye he is all for DEI yet in the background he is astonishingly unfair. I've been here for over a decade and work with many departments. My team of engineers were cut out of large deal payouts and I've heard the sales people have similar experiences. Why am I here...I am nearing retirement but feel it important to inform people what is really happening. What is most unfortunate is how this damages relationships internally and externally, massive blow to morale that had been very positive, revenue takes a huge his as momentum comes to a halt, and gererally destroys what had been working in a company for holding back some well deserved payouts...? Yet it continues for over a decade. People ask about once per quarter...why is he protected?

Worse CEO EVER, most egocentric, wannabe, micromanager. Worse evaluation system for salary raise. Self centrist culture, you are on your own. No career opportunity at all

Pros

Some acquired companies have fantastic people working at them. Overall OpenText is not the worst, but far from the best.

Cons

OpenText destroys company culture and profits, focusing instead on useless internal renaming/initiatives/rules. Employees are not trusted and additional rules are added so nobody has any flexibility. The goal seems to be to squeeze as much short term profit from a company as possible and then move on to the next one.
