Pros

You get to work with some really smart people in a team that is only just starting to find it's feet - meaning you get to define your role, and the way you would like to go to market. But also have the huge advantage of working for a very reputable company

Cons

Not enough pre-sales bandwidth and weak partner network - although both aspects are currently being addressed

Pros

Good pay, friendly people, good products and the opportunity to travel. If you like working in a very corporate environment you will probably enjoy oracle.

Cons

No development or training. Leadership is a revolving door and a lot of thought leadership has left the company. Struggle to keep up with more leaner competitors in the market.

Pros

Oracle was a great company. Many enterprise level applications. Work life balance was good. Resources were great

Cons

I was always told you get paid well so to put up with the dysfunction. Middle management has no empowerment. Multiple pillars don't work together and are encouraged to compete against each other for the customers budget by their management. The college hire program is great for the new college kids but lack of training and focus on call the customer 100x a week has pushed customers to hate Oracle. The experienced Field Sales has to apologize for the lack of professionalism by the telesales teams. The Cloud is great but Oracle's Cloud Strategy is siloed with no real direction by leadership. Leadership is so focused on saying they are #1 in Cloud by acquiring good Cloud Solutions and then demolishing the acquired solution over time. Other great companies such as Workday, Salesforce, Click, ServiceNow are truly great in the Cloud and take care of their customers and employees. Many of these companies are lead by former Oracle executives that saw Oracle Leadership at the very top with no vision and losing it's respective place in Enterprise Software.
