OpenText Technologies Software Engineer Reviews

Likes

Joined here as a fresher. Have to say when you start working you will be introduced to a world of technologies which you will be thrilled to learn about. At least for a week.

Then, after your first release. Everything becomes stale. You will do same 5 tasks about several next years. And you will work on tons and tons of Service Request, which will not add anything to your technical growth, As knowledge obtained from that SR is bounded to your project/product. Most of the products in my division was legacy. Absolutely no Development at all(Back end wise). They will ask you || teach you about some basics of cloud and security technologies. Which they will never go in depth, and are of different sections because of which you never form a specific specializations. You will feel the pain when you make your switch. At the very first day the HR will say two specific words : HORIZONTAL GROWTH. Well if you plot a chart with time/growth with growth being on y axis. yep it's true. For all the time spent here the growth will be terribly terribly small. Now, work life balance xD So before covid it was somewhat okay. Post covid I think they totally forgot there was personal life outside work. It became 8 am to 9 pm pretty fast. Weirdly enough, they will tell you to fill only 8 hours in SAP not accounting for your overtime but when you leave they will deduct all the extra day offs that you've taken. As a fresher I was extremely extremely excited to join here. But Now as of when I am writing this post while I am leaving, all I feel is a bit of gratitude and tons of regret....Read More

1. IT department is plus point to the organisation. 2. Quick ticket solving. 3. On-time salary. 4. Better technologies are used so good place to learn a new technology. 5. flexible working hours at starting and later it bent towards strictness(doesn't matter for me).

Dislikes

1. No or low hikes. 2. Manager's behaviour- They dont value candidate's opinion and on the other hand wants them to take their own decision. 3. More than 9 hours of work. 4. No appreciation for hard work. 5. Politics or blame game. 6. Bonus is rarely provided more than 30% in an year, which is a part of CTC.

Work-life balance is poor. Work pressure is high. I have been working there for more than a year and I have struggled a lot to make myself comfortable. We always are overloaded with the meetings. Until you do not show off in those meetings you will be treated as minimal. School culture, Micromanagement. Most of the time we have to work on weekends to make managers happy that no items spilling and that too without any recognition. Even when you are up to your daily tasks, They expect you to learn something new and whatever best possible to make themselves happy. Every day you feel like a race where you have to just run and run and run. It happens in my project but I have not much idea about other projects,...Read More
