Pros

You are selling the best products in the industry. When competing against other companies to win a deal, you have an advantage, because everything Oracle owns is the best. It is easy to get in the door with customers because everyone uses at least one product within the Oracle product stack. It is a good thing to have on your resume.

Cons

This is a very cut throat company and they are not known for treating their employees with the greatest of respect. Management does not have the upmost in talent. They are incredibly cheap with things such as travel, awards, team lunches. The processes to close a deal are too overwhelming. For eg. you have to negotiate contracts with the lawyers on the customer side, but Oracle will not put a lawyer on the phone.

Pros

Financial stability and product leadership. The results are that in tough times like we're experiencing now, there is more opportunities and safety. For instance, the sales organization has built up a war chest that will prevent any RIF's for a substantial period of time. The products for the most part are leaders in their respective spaces and where there are gaps, the overall strategy to build out an entire integrated application and technology suite can trump the "best of breed" advantage.

Cons

It's a BIG company and there is a good amount of process (documented and undocumented) as well as a fair amount of politics to navigate.
