Pros

AE's get tremendous support from the Engineering community, delivering quality products quickly, based on visions from the CTO. AE's are well-compensated, and have the chance to make a lot of money by closing big deals.

Cons

If you're not in the Enterprise Group selling ECM products, you're quickly forgotten. It's all about ECM for this company, though many products have been integrated into the ECM stack. There is so much acquisition of companies going on, it's hard to be considered meaningful. They buy and slice, not only in the general admin, but in Sales as well. Better have a great year, every year.

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!
