Pros

Lot to learn with respect to cloud technologies as most of the development happens in cloud. Free food and Free transportation. Management always cared about my health and gave good compensation for the work I did.

Cons

Some seniors(especially those staying from long time) don't like it when a junior member performs better than them or raises the bar and kill their confidence. May be this is a common thing in IT industry.

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!
