what happened? wouldn't layoff pump the stock price?

Anyone able to confirm that?

Non-Core layoffs, who's actually been affected? I'm a US-based remote employee in an SMBC Non-Core unit. I was certain I'd be laid off, but the axe hasn't fallen on me or several peers. Is this a real stay of execution, or just a holding pattern... — read more 

Don't help them by proving that the work can be done with fewer people by breaking your own back for nothing in return. Don't say no, just say you're busy. Your plate is full. You'd love to help but there's simply not enough time for it all. They're... — read more 

… is what the chairman of the board likely said when it was assumed that Mark B. brought OpenText to the lowest depths possible. Jenkins is doing a great job of flirting with stock prices in the teens, which he will soon reach, and destroying what... — read more

For those of you getting laid off, my thoughts and prayers are with you all. I am waiting for my time to come. Are they sending out calendar items, or just contacting you out of the blue? Also, it looks like India is getting hit...hard.

Are the cuts over for now ? What about Emea ?

Or are they doing it silent

Higher pay? Remote? not AI first? not using enough AI(Copilot)

Frankly, I didn't know it would feel this good. I was sick of the job and the constant anticipation. I have something lined up. Not certain, so who knows. But I don't care right now. Thanks to all the good people I worked with. I wish you all the... — read more 

Sudden layoff. No notice . Said organizational changes

I'm no longer at Open Text, I was laid off last year, but I admit I'm curious to see if severance remains the same or if they shrunk it even more.

Why does the leadership keep doing this? What's being achieved? We lost two of our most valuable team members today. I've only been here for four years, they both had 15+ years with the company. I don't understand how you just decide to get rid of... — read more 

Long time follower first time poster from Canada, laid off today! This site can pinpoint a specific day! Just epic!

This isn’t speculation anymore — layoffs are happening, and India seems to be in the middle of it right now (likely continuing through the week). From what I’m hearing, this is part of a broader org restructuring with global impact. The numbers being... — read more

Good luck folks! It happened to me this morning

Muhi will announce his retirement soon. Today, is a definite possibility.

No invites sent, nothing has happened in India No layoffs

May the odds be ever in your favor. Just know it’s a normal thing here at OT, nothing you did wrong. Onwards and upwards

How hard would it be to put together an actual strategy instead of just running the same play over and over - dispose of people, repeat.

Big difference in both these numbers . Which one is it

When are we expecting the event ? Will India have it's layoffs done by the time people in North America start Monday ? Will it go on all week ?

My guess is that he won’t stay longer than a year. I’m in management and preparing for a revolving door of executives along with quarterly RIFs until we are ultimately acquired.

Tough times are ahead. Again. I'm training myself to use every moment away from work for myself, to stop carrying it with me all the time. I can't influence what's going to happen, so I can at least try to enjoy what precious free time I have. Good... — read more

A massive reorg is being planned to reduce business units , and consolidate around AI document management systems. Think Content Server + Aviator.

To be honest id welcome getting released from this pressure cooker, a truly horrible place to work

Any orgs or regions getting a pass?

Being told to implement IA to do your job, so we don't need you anymore, or we will let you go, makes no sense. Especially when no tools or assistance are provided. It's like telling the bus driver to implement a self-driving system so we don't... — read more
