Pros

Some pros were mobility within the organization, diversity of staff, compensation was very competitive. Employees in my group were treated very well overall.

Cons

Very large company to less chance to differentiate oneself. Also slower to adopt new technologies and the pace of projects felt monolithic at times.

Pros

Oracle is the best company to work for if you care for your work life balance and family life. Being a product company, the work we do is not very hectic and deadlines not very strict. Employees are being cared well when it comes to promotions. Employees are respected well. Nobody abuses you and you get a comfortable day at work

Cons

Bonus and hikes are unexpected. You don't know when it comes. As in any other company, its difficult to contact the finance department

Pros

Acquisitions mean that staff are geographically spread: Oracle has not insisted that staff move to HQ, so working hours and attendance are extremely flexible.

Cons

The company has become increasingly penny-pinchingly cost conscious, keeping a tight reign on salary, eroding health benefits, travel and entertainment - and not providing hardware for engineers - we salivate at some of the Google stories. Some of us even have CRT monitors!
