Pros

Oracle helps you get a brand name on your CV. There are enough opportunities internally and across divisions to keep climbing regularly. Exceptionally well positioned for the recession.

Cons

With all the M&A activity in the last 4 years the company has become a confusing place to work in. There is too much of change happening all the time. Change is a good thing - in moderation. Unfortunately - Oracle changes for the sake of "change". It is a machine - that will become obsolescent in about ten years - unless they are able to find a way to work with the market - other than muscling their customers.

Pros

Less Bureaucracy, Varied Opportunities, Character of making employees bold and confident, and agressive in their endeavours

Cons

HR as good as inactive. Not a 'People's' company. In Bangalore, lots of regionalism based discrimination by Tamil/Mallu managers

Pros

I feel supported at Oracle and like I'm given encouragement (if not incentive) for innovation in my field. The culture of entreprenurialism and innovation can be exciting and it's always nice to be able to say I work for Oracle - people may not know what we do, but that makes a good conversation starter!

Cons

Oracle is not the most progressive when it comes to salary increases - especially when promotions are involved. One Senior Executive is rumored to have said in response to a complaint from a direct report about not being compensated adequately, "Your resume is your compensation!"
