Pros

The Work Life balance is well maintained in the company. Lot of opportunities to Learn. Very cool working atmosphere.i.e pressure for work is less.

Cons

Raises/bonus are not at all offered.Company does not like to share wealth This is a company for managers. Managers are respected but not the employees. With less pressure for work,employees tend to become Lazy,lethargy.

Pros

The pay is reasonably good for the work. The name looks good on a resume. Good work quality produced and knowledgable group. Good peer level coworkers to work with.

Cons

People are not valued for their knowledge and-or experience. Things are done because it is the way it has always been done vs. finding better options or listening to better ideas. Hierarchical and stifling with a culture of fear of the managers above you. Everyone is always guessing what the head creative person wants, and good ideas are killed based on guesses vs. being presented and finding out. Fight for a better idea against the opinion of a manager; you might be looking for a new job.

Pros

They have great benefits and a good starting salary. Of all the different teams and products at Oracle, I am lucky to be in a very good group for a good product. My group works in smaller teams, and our product is a smaller product so we have more control over our code, thus making a bigger difference to the product. I did start at Oracle in a different group and it wasn't as enjoyable or rewarding.

Cons

It is a big company, and you might not initially know if the group you are joining is good for you or not. But it is relatively easy to switch within the company. Promotions and raises are also quite infrequent. I know great engineers who have been working there for years but haven't moved any where.
