Who are the Teflon's ? The one who always manage to dodge accountability by shifting responsibility onto others, while the rest of the team is left to pick up the pieces and work twice as hard to go unrecognized as always.

One of the biggest surprises here has been how disconnected everything feels. There's very little collaboration, almost no coaching, and it's easy to go long stretches without hearing from leadership unless there's a problem. Is this just me? Did I... — read more 

There's a wave 2 WFR aligned for October. There is also a McKinsey run project ongoing ...And employee F26 ratings have been moved up to July. What's OpenText up to?

OT hasn’t done anything to make any meaningful (or simply, ANY) change. The “Bored” and so-called leadership are former CEO nepo-babies who don’t care a whiff about anything but their own “standing” with King of the Bored Jenkins. What do we know? ... — read more 

So how’s the troops enjoying the whacked out new OT Salesforce? Apart from being unable to quote easily or quickly, needing multiple approvals for list price quotes, an inability to intelligently search for products, processing orders literally like... — read more 

What happened to the other BU's that were sold off? Did all employees get laid off? To be sold off seems like a good thing at this point, or is that just wishful thinking?

So people can be ready for it.

It's been a few weeks, but I've finally calmed down. When I first heard the news my body felt weak, I couldn't sleep because this visionary was gone.

internal sentiment at this company is too negative. hard to work with some people/teams with sh-t attitude and outlook as a motivated new hire and outsider, trying to make it work. cant even explain how much worse my last gig was and it was rated one... — read more 

How can moving to limited pools of employees around centres of excellence, improve a company? I call BS. They are winding OT down.

No meaningful raises for 99% of the employees No more monetary awards to recognize years of service No cost of living increases Rare that leaders are allowed ot give monetary thank you's for going the extra mile. OT . The company that comes to mind... — read more 

What an absolute disgrace of a migration, whoever signed off on big bang approach should be sacked. I feel for the support team

I see the market was up again today, and the OpenText price ... oh, crud ... down again. This company's outlook is bleak as long as Jenkins, his pupppet CEO, the so-called Board of Directors, Bell, Muhi, Rai, Berry, Cione, Acedo, and all the other... — read more

Want your voice heard? Do not participate in the survey. A poor survey participation rate tells this company everything they need to know.

This company is the worst ever. They have no clue what they are doing. SMBC is for sale, probably sold already. Just let us go already. I'm not giving in though; they are going to pay me severance. Treating people like sh!t is going to work, and... — read more 

How many years do you need to be here to get severance?

A layoff is when good epmployees are let go due to bad business decisions. The employees were forced to support and try to make those decisions work, and are then fired. The executives who made those decisions stick around, say they hated to do it... — read more 

I hate this job and this company. I'd leave if I could, but the market is awful. The only silver lining is that layoffs happen all the time, so I might get out with severance eventually.

is there any new data about this topic? we are waiting for several month to be laid off or sold and it really disrupts the work flow and motivation, everyone is waiting so everything is very slow and unmotivated......

I've seen people starting to relax because they think the layoffs are winding down. That's a mistake. If you look at what's actually happening, it's pretty clear that we're not done yet. Anyone who thinks we're close to the end is going to be very... — read more

Are there any cuts coming to engineering or cloud operations ? If so when

I was let go today along with many others at the Waterloo office. Many good people. All very senior, so it is all about cutting cost as much as you can. Happy to leave. Dead products with no future growth.

The poor performers are being removed from the company The people who don't do any work and don't comply with RTO policy are gone We can now move forward and thrive without the dead weight

Today I witnessed all that is wrong with the human race. All people really care about is themselves, they asked the questions, but all they really wanted to know or hear was not me, not me(this time). However, what I found most disgusting was the... — read more
