      Good company with good people, but at this stage in its life should be easier to get things accomplished efficiently.

      Pros

      There are a lot of good people who have good experience and expertise and when you can get their time will be very helpful. The company does treat its employees well and in general its a good work environment developing software in a interesting area.

      Cons

      The company always felt bigger than it was and was too political for its size. Too many individual groups were going in their own direction with their own agenda, resulting too many duplications of efforts. There is a lot of expertise and experience throughout the company but people are often too focused on the immediate projects and goals to be able to help. Too much work is done with the a short goal in mind at the cost of long term productivity and improvement.

      Pros

      Was a great place to work before Nagra (Kudelski Group) bought our company. We had multiple products, an office full of employees. Our teams were making huge goals such as our middleware team had implemented a milestone of over 200 million set-top boxed with OpenTV middleware worldwide and everyone in the office was a team. Advertising signed 3 major MSO's to its Eclipse Product and rolled out a new product Eclipse Plus to the market.

      Cons

      After Kudelski did a hostile takeover of OpenTV back in 2010, departments were split off, personnel were shrunk and the old remainder of OpenTV was the Advertising Software group. Inevitably like all the other divisions of OpenTV, it was sold off in Oct 2014. The remainder of OpenTV's products are now Imagine Communications. OpenTV was a great medium size middleware, software company that had positive cash reserves and happy employees. Nothing positive came out of the Nagra/Kudelski take over.
