      Lucrative but intensely frustrating.

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great benefits and work/life balance.

      Cons

      Priorities shift every year and too many competing viewpoints at Product Management level. Very slow product development process with unwieldly tools. Some groups very secretive and protective of turf; "Prove to us that it is our bug, but you can't look at our code." Since most products were acquired, not developed in house, there is no consistency in how products work internally or integrate. Some acquired groups have inexperienced engineers. Useless review process and no raises to speak of. Highest management levels do not inspire confidence. Product planning and scheduling are top down. Schedules always have to slip, by a lot. *Always*.

      Oracle Consulting - Hire and Fire at will !

      Principal consultant

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Independence, Great opportunities to self-learn, brand name

      Cons

      Bench is not tolerated, seldom meet people at work, sometimes one can work and retire for managers without ever seeing them in person, a consultant is always a resource and can be laid-off during bench without any attention paid to their skillsets or contributions

      Consulting

      Principal consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The training is outstanding, good bonuses, lots of opportunity for learning, decent benefits, strong internal support of peers and colleagues, endless opportunities for travel (if desired)

      Cons

      Sometimes they put the consultants on engagements for which they are not prepared to delivered as much as expected. This stems from the aggressive business development practices. This is quite stressful as the consultants must perform under extreme pressure and deadlines. There is also a constant hiring/firing cycle and layoffs seem very arbitrary. Also, the org. chart was always in flux and it was difficult to figure out which group was responsible for which areas of business.
