Some people really care ..

Inconvénients

Lets detail the facts so you can formulate your own opinion to join 1. The company is a value company so the bottom line is everything! Growth, investment, innovation, employee value, all expendable to protect the bottom line 2. They buy broken and shrinking assets so by the nature of it you are selling, building, deploying solutions that exist and often decaying, are not priorities for customers or are commoditizing 3.,with commodizing solutions it's hard to sell more. So the renewal becomes everything. Power internally shifts to those teams and the field gets screwed along with customers. It's a viscous downward spiral seen by many a tech company death 3. A company like this can't attract or retain innovative and great leadership across all roles. Hence good people leave. Bad people stay.. Over the years it has resulted in a upper level leadership team that are incapable of action. Few good execs joined and now all left.. Leaving yes men 4. When you have leadership that is so mediocre then you get a command and control type structure in which the CEO dictates, monitors and tinkers with everything. This results in a paralyzed structure. It's on a scale unseen 5. The only way to keep the scheme going is to keep topping up through acquisitions faster than leaking out of the bottom. Works fine until even bad companies are expensive and then the bang moment .. It collapses

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

Inconvénients

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!
