Pros

To prepare for larger opportunities downstream. Large number of (overlapping) products across various market segments. Oracle brand did have value in the past (brand value may be not as strong now as it was in the past).

Cons

Too much inter-group rivalry. One may get multiple promotions and then suddenly an executive may decide to get rid of an individual to further his personal agenda. No due process. HR processes are non-existent. Lack of fairness and respect for individual employees. Oracle's philosphy is use it and dispose it!

Pros

The work life balance is extremely good at i-flex. Even though you get to work at top notch financial clients, the projects are manageable. You do get very close interaction with senior IT executives at the client site. These contacts are very useful if you ever plan to switch to the client. You will get very good opportunities to learn operations and processes followed in the financial industry. Good brand name in the IT services field. Ths is specially true for the Flexcube product. Of course, now that it has been acquired by Oracle, the future remains to be seen.

Cons

Upper management is not employee focused enough. Average salary as compared to peers. Very Political.

Pros

Good work life balance. If you are good at what you do it is fairly easy to stand out. Resonably good variable compensation package (options and bonus). It is a company set up to succeed in the enterprise space (given its size).

Cons

Career growth options are limited especially if you are in a group with by an underperforming leader. Work can get boring quickly and you don't really have an option to use tools that are best of breed (you must use oracle tools whether or not they are the best).
