It doesn't matter if those posts saying ppl were poor performers or have poor mental health came from bots (which is kinda worse since it implies the company itself may be behind them) or from actual trolls, OT should care enough to shut this down. I... — read more

Rememberance Day
Really sad to note that a Canadian head quartered company doesn't even care about acknowledging this important day. It's our heritage and culture. What's worse is most of the ELT is Canadian and they couldn't care less

We don’t have a business set up properly to accommodate this model. I don’t understand the benefits to the CE. They can talk all they want about how the customers like it but let’s talk about how the CE’s feel. I quoted one up by 2X but no change to... — read more
Lmao they didn't even show how separate products did YoY
Holy moly how bad are things really. They've always showed how separate product buckets did YoY. They completely skipped that this time. Dude was literally fumbling his words trying to justify how bad financially things are WHILE READING OFF A... — read more
CORE growth because Ayman MOVED non growth out
Steve R - sure, we shared with investors that we did some reclassification, but they get it. Steve, let me rephrase that "A month into Q1, we looked at what core parts of the business were bleeding money, and we secretly moved all of that into non... — read more

Aye-HalfMan you have NOT EARNED ANYONES TRUST
No one cares about your stupid stories. We are not your children. None of this will help the company and you are certainly not fostering any goodwill when you deny your employees increases they earned.

Ayman needs to pull a Jensen to save OT

Why do people stay at OpenText?
With all the complaints on here about layoffs, reorganizations, morale, management and uncertainty, why are so many long-time employees still there? If another company offered you the exact same pay tomorrow, would you leave?

What are analysts saying about the results?
Curious what the market is going to make of yet another quarter of declining revenue at OpenText. It doesn't seem like worldwide sales leadership setting strategy has been successful. TC has had several years to turn things around. Hasn't happened... — read more

Management really thinks fear is motivation
Apparently, the answer to unhappy employees is to make their lives even more miserable. Keep pushing people until nobody wants to work here, then blame them for having no motivation.
Working 45, 50 hour weeks
Is this normal? Is it expected? I know it's not a lot, considering some folks work 60, 70, and longer hour weeks, but it's their choice. I feel like I'm required to work extra.
Performance based layoffs
Have these happened already ? I haven't heard anything, it's usually in October

Lets talk how cr-p the renewals team is...
Firstly I believe this is run by the serial longtimer James (Don't speak to me) McGourlay. Renewals work in stealth mode. They are amazing at sending emails late, have zero real client engagement and seem to think sending an email with a $400k... — read more
The problem with ELT and SLT
Having worked at other new age companies, here is what I see. The people responsible for investment decisions don't understand the customer deeply, neither do they understand the product deeply. The bigger problem is that they aren't humble enough... — read more
