Pros

For the most part everything stayed the same. Nice new coffee makers

Cons

A number of tertiary employees were laid off like IT. Since there's central IT, somewhere. It takes days, weeks to get anything resolved, everything has a workflow and it all takes approvals and time. Required to be in the office but will not cover transportation costs which is an effective pay cut. No freedoms, or flexibility to learn/grow. Everything must be tangible, you can only use your education funds for certificates or courses.

Pros

Great co-workers and immediate manager

Cons

I was part of an amazing company which got acquired by OpenText after the acquisition things started to get bad. (I am specifically referring to the Customer Support Organization of this company). Large layoffs of highly skilled long tenured loyal technical employees with zero notice and no opportunity to move internally. Below industry standards for pay, poor 401K match, no stock options, long hours, limited PTO, Poor work/life balance. If you are part of an acquisition you are better off looking elsewhere before you are let go.
