Someone asked CEO if employment would be affected by a project that was going on and CEO said he wouldn't know until the team reported back in mid Sept What were they talking about

It's dawned on me that during the hiring process, with its flurry of emails and documents going back-and-forth, I didn't get a signed copy of my contract back from OT. (Obviously, OT isn't foolish enough to add a copy to employee profiles in TC.) It... — read more

For anyone who's completely burned out, here's something I've learned. You can push back on some of the nonsense and the sky doesn't immediately fall. A lot of managers aren't going to fire someone who is still carrying a big part of the workload. If... — read more

Amazing to listen to the sales president spin everything. Truth is Q1 is a disaster and the BOD and CEO are going to be making some major changes.

Is it true that new hires with less than 1 year tenure are given the "developing contributor" primarily due to them being new to role and not really because of performance reasons? Also, what are the implications of this rating?. I believe... — read more 

Anyone know if large layoffs are coming in October ? Aymon mentioned in town hall that large layoffs were only if a company had a profit problem whereas Opentext has a revenue problem so sounds like no cuts ?

Finally. It's here. Part of my Opentext AI mandate to learn AI. This is what I have learned. There is now an AI tool to replace ELT. It can't do any worse and Opentext get instant cost savings by replacing the entire Suite C level with AI. That's... — read more

What a piece of Shi$ Mu#i and the rest of the cr-ppy leadership. How about giving up some of the exec pay raises so monetary awards can be given back to deserving employees.

I’ve been watching these new CE get their number and realise that they actually are responsible for ITOM Business networks and Cyber. I’ve been invited to their meetings for input…… The ITOM business and Cyber haven’t done big deals in years….. Has... — read more 

How many employees are put in the lowest two buckets (needs improvement and developing contributor) . What if you have been unfairly out into that bucket. Is there any point in challenging it ?

What's the change Ayman skirted around during today's town hall? Solutions and teams moving "out of the Core". He is waiting for a recommendation from "the team". His way of putting a WFR blame on others since he is going to follow "the teams"... — read more

The leadership's perfect candidate has wisdom of a 50yo, experience of a 40yo, drive of a 30yo, and will work for pay of 20yo.

Does anyone have credible intelligence about when the next round of layoffs will begin and what the target groups are likely to be?

Is this the miracle Todd C has bet his career on?

Just seen there was a celebration of project unity in the UK with Shannon Bell. I am not sure this migration could have been anymore of a sh-t show. I previously spent 30% of my week chasing approvals (that in 4 years I have never not had one... — read more
