Pros

Can do innovative work in certain groups. Some amazing talent still works at Oracle. Some product groups are at the leading edge of technology.

Cons

Fast degenerating into a bureaucracy. Politics rules, competence is much discounted. Resembles the worst of IBM and CA at times. Management for the most part is a blend of willful ignorance and blissful incompetence. The more one sucks up the higher they progress. Is more like a retirement community where the salary is your retiral benefit.

Pros

Nice gym with free aerobics classes. Flexible work hours, though you usu end up putting in a lot more than 40 hours because of ambitious deadlines. Can telecommute (Oracle picks up the tab for ISP).

Cons

Not easy to find out who is responsible for what. Documents are not easy to locate and search. Not easy to get hardware upgrade. (My desktop at work is more than 5 years old, with only 80 Gb disk space, DVD-Rom - not RW - drive, clunky CRT monitor). No free lunch.
