Oracle is great for balance, not growth.

Pros

Work Life Balance is fantastic. If you understand this you'll be ok. If you don't you'll be unhappy. Personally, I love Oracle for this reason. I have time to do my job and time to do what I love as well.

Cons

Very political. Difficult to move up in the organization or get pay increases. Join the company as high as you can.

Pros

Pay can be good for some. Generally those who hire from outside and negotiate good starting salaries. Sales people with very thick skin can earn a very good living. Oracle looks good on a resume. Lots of different products and technologies to work with.

Cons

Virtually no career growth. Many, many people in the same role for 10 years + I very top driven organization where you really need to manage up. Very much a "what have you done for me lately" company. Tech folks now hourly employees which was a big hit initially (OT pay), but now a big bone of contention as OT needs to be "approved". Don't expect a raise anytime soon. Last year the raise pool was .5%, this year it is .6%. See more than a handful of folks with more than 14 years?
