Pros

OpenText offers some very little benefits, some other companies do not offer.

Cons

OpenText has a nice marketing branch which paints everything and all in fancy colours. Red Oxygen - this is what everybody needs! Or what OpenText thinks what companies need. Or what they want to think... Before OpenText starts offering the 'old stuff', wrapped with new glamorous names they should review the products they have and offer a leaner product line.

Pros

You get a paycheck. Some of the people are nice but don’t trust anyone.

Cons

Exec leadership is awful. Always putting out the positive party line but it is all lies. Products are so far behind competitors. No investment in product or marketing. Senior executive leadership team shuffles around their “good old boy” comrades to new roles instead of retiring them or holding them accountable. The internal politics with everyone back stabbing each other to manage up and keep their jobs. Leadership is just doing what the board chair tells them to do. It is all about self promotion vs doing the job. They like to blame the previous CEO but he has been gone a year and it has only gotten worse. OpenText likes to brand itself as top company to work for , I say STAY AWAY!
