      Worst company I ever worked at

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      It will pay the bills IF you can't get a job anywhere else

      Cons

      This is the worst company I ever worked at (was in a great small company and then we got bought and then it was rapid decline from there). Low pay, no advancement, while they lay off hundreds of rank & file, why isn't I never seen any VP's laid off? If they're doing a lot of hiring overseas why aren't they outsourcing the really expensive positions like VP or CEO also - that would save some real money.

      Product Managing at OpenText

      Product manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great teammates & coworkers Mature processes Good HR structure and general onboarding Areas of product focus seem successful A good place to learn how to do your job in a big organization on a big stage Great communication from the execs Professional environment Product lines exist in relevant markets - good exposure

      Cons

      OpenText approach is pervasive - one size fits all Inability to innovate (classic innovators dilemma problems) Mature processes can be decades out of date Process can be far more important than actual outcomes Has some odd looking history of buying business units, underinvesting and then putting the products out to pasture No Program Management discipline( Product and Dev Managers manager fill in here and it can be painful) If you do work here - take the good learnings (and there are a lot) but make sure not to carry the "process things to death" part with you to your next job

      Pros

      Used to be pros before OpenText bought my company. Now the only pro is that you have an excuse to be depressed.

      Cons

      -Minimal pay -Upper leadership is tone def to lower management and its employees. -Back to back calls with a matching ticket queue to compliment this misery.
