Pluspunten

very capable computer hardware provided to engineers, decent support for ordering new hardware tools, very good teamwork and camaraderie at my local branch, decent benefits

Minpunten

Like very publicly traded company, Opentext only cares about Y/Y growth for their shareholders, and will do anything to get it. Tons of bureaucratic processes with multiple levels of approvers, most of who know nothing about the request, when going through the traditional procurement process, even for purchases of relatively small values (<10k). Executive leadership deleted our entire fulfillment team (4 people) who had worked there for 10+ years to try and coalesce shipping at a single location without any forewarning or discussion with the stakeholders. Executive leadership does not care about you unless you produce something Cloud or AI.

Pluspunten

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

Minpunten

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!
