Pros
I liked my team and my direct manager
Cons
Opentext has a habit of purchasing new companies without really building up the ones that they have already. Once purchased, they do a mass purge of the new company, and then a purge of their existing employees too in order to keep up with the new costs. There seems to be no rhyme or reason as to whom they pick, and almost just pull names out of a hat. This puts a strain on everyone. No one knows if they are next, and the small team now needs to take on that much more work, without getting any compensation for it. Annual reviews provide a poor increase of 2 or 3% if you are lucky. Getting promoted provides a generic company wide document that doesn't provide any real direction on progress.
