Pros

As hard as I try to think of some pros, I really can't come up with any.

Cons

- no innovation at all - all products are merely on life support to wring every last maintenance dollar from products that were innovative 10+ years ago - executive management is terrible - <10% of sales reps make quota - turnover is extremely high - anyone who was good has left (most right after their company was acquired into this mess

Pros

Lots of very bright people who are all working to solve problems and make things better for the customer. Mostly great software with lots of capabilities. Over the years many competitors have fumbled the ball and OpenText has kept building on its core products and supports customers very well. Stock plan is ok and benefits are very good. On many levels they care about employees.

Cons

Software industry is sometimes ruthless with layoffs as "the market" changes. If you are in accounting, finance or other support areas the pay is not so great and the work is not that interesting. As the company has grown it has stopped caring so much about the 'little people.'
