Pros

- Very good work-life balance - Good career growth - Excellent exposure to Oracle technologies

Cons

- Hike / bonus cycle may or may not happen evey year - Hikes are always single digit; hardly double. - Promotions are not linked to salary hikes - Appraisal is not linked to salary hike To sum it up ; once you join nothing can garuntee you that you will get any hike /salary change. You may get same salary after n years of service. Yours junior/campus joinee WILL always make more money than you :)

Pros

1) Good work life balance and Work from home option. 2) Flexible timings 3) Good company for Managers and Senior roles only.

Cons

1) Usually no hikes, you never know when you will get a hike, even if you get it will be a single digit hike only. They pay you good when they release offer after that you don't see any hikes. 2) No career growth at all and no learning curve. 3) If you are some one who want to be abreast with the technologies, never join this company. You will get stupid work like bug fixing and production support tasks only as most of their products are very old and long running projects. For developers there is no good work at all and they will put you in multiple products and ask you to work and expect a lot. 4) No one cares about the employee including your manager, you even don't know about your HR. HR is for the name sake and he/she won't be in touch with you at all. If there is any issue, you can't even raise your voice since there is no transparency in the company. 5) They acquire companies like anything, when they feel like no revenue from the GBU, they simply layoff the people. 6) No clear road maps on the products and business. Employee will never understand what is the career growth for him.
