Oracle is just ok but don't be fooled to think they value employees
Pros
still many smart people working together to get things done typically safe in product orgs decent brand to have on resume and decent benefits most people are really compassionate
Cons
don't count on any annual raises...usually delayed or just non-existent after joining it's hard to get any significant salary increases or transfer into new roles that aren't laterals they laid off people on maternity leave or dealing with serious illness and don't bat an eye very little communication internally about org changes, lay offs, future of business CEO is smart, but getting pretty elderly and many feel like some fresh new blood could be a shot in the arm the company needs no respect for employees as they are hard pressed to promote within the ranks (especially if making jump from IC to manager) Marketing is underfunded and undervalued and it shows Sales org churn is a given and it is hurting the bottom line
