Avantages

If you want to "Learn how to stick it to others" or "How to claw your way up the Corporate Ladder" then working here would fulfill that goal.

Inconvénients

For me, this was honestly the worst career experience I ever had in my life. 1) Key Staff always gone: Dept Head was absent 90% majority of time, but she did put huge effort into sucking up to the CEO. 2) Outdated Data: The only powerpoint presentation dept head gave in 2017 was dated from 2007. 3)Employee Churn: Within a 14 month period, 8 people on team of 15 left. 4) Profit is THE only goal: There are a large number of acquisitions (CEO buys mostly little cheap products that don't fit with OpenText products but we were supposed to stitch them together into some kind of Frankenstein fashion & it created an ongoing mess to integrate. The CEO thinks he is a brilliant business man, who typically welcomes then promptly fires 10%+ of acquired staff w/out warning. 5 - All sorts of Waste: The Gaithersburg office has 4 floors which are 80% empty all the time - they wasted a lot of time, space and money. 6. Technical Antiquated Products - Their products are technically dated so users are very unhappy a good deal of the time. Overall: Talented individuals do not stay here long.

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!
