Pros

If a consultant wants or needs to 'come off the road' Oracle provides many opportunities to accomplish this. other consulting firms its the road or the highway

Cons

In many ways Oracle doesn't know how to deal with consultants. They were and are a great database company and probably should have stayed in that business. Once PeopleSoft was purchased they should have dropped the line of Oracle HR software and embraced PeopleSoft software.

Pros

Oracle is a solid employer offering competitive compensation packages. It's also big enough that you can find the right work-life balance somewhere in the company, but it may take some time to find it. Collaboration is critical to success because of the large number of people involved with every decision. But, its worth is demonstrated in the quality of the products we produce.

Cons

Oracle is big, and it keeps getting bigger. Standing out and getting your voice heard is a big challenge. Competition is everywhere and employees are very territorial, so focus on teamwork rather than individual contributions. Also, you may end up working here even if you go elsewhere due to constant acquisition-based growth.

Pros

As a consultant you get to work with some of the smartest people in the industry, and with a brand name like Oracle, some of the most interesting projects.

Cons

You can get lost in such a large company. Many times performance varies between the groups within Consulting, but bonuses are calculated on performance of all groups across North America. Less risk, but less reward.
