Pros

Salary is fairly well set - the Dutch 30% ruling also is positive 28 vacation days + able to "buy" more vacation days (max 10 extra) Possibilities to move positions internally Commission is fairly nice

Cons

Resources are lacking - the technical knowledge and experience does not exist within the company Internal communication is far from working properly - structure is bad and there are no clear routes Internal systems/processes are ridiculous - everything takes 10 times longer than it should Promises made when hiring has not been met - very unprofessional

Pros

Work from home for many roles. Good retirement contribution matching. Excellent Employee "assistance" programs (counselling/relocation/etc.). Support for community volunteer programs. Most employees work well together (when management supports it) both locally and globally..

Cons

Executive team is focused primarily on cost reductions and has been for years now, hence: work from home is encouraged, no raises or promotions for staff but very high pay for co-CEOs compared to market peers, significant recruitment efforts around fresh grads who will not receive real salary increases either, see OpenWorld keynote by Co-CEO for perspectives on cost cutting, forced time off over Christmas season using employee's personal vacation time allotment. No performance appraisals, focus on "development plans" and "talent reviews" without compensation/promotions. Considering the business environment and claiming to be a market leader the stock has been a laggard for years now. Time will come for staff reductions soon. New hires must negotiate for a high starting salary, you will not receive a raise so take advantage of the opportunity while you can.

Pros

- It is Oracle... - You have access to a multiple of resource and technologies. - Work is challenging and you deal with a global and multi-cultural organization. - Lot of opportunity for growth

Cons

- Global :) So sometime you if you need to work with remote team, you will need to do it on evening or early mornings.
