Cons

forget about a promotion, raise or bonus. Culture is getting worse, employees are not valued. Falling behind on technology.

Pros

Having the oracle brand value to your resume. They give good machines to work with I couldn't find any single pros other than these

Cons

Trust me, i tried to keep it brief 1. The so called work life balance is nearly gone, it depends on the team you work for. If you are into a fusion team, there is less chance that you will have work life balance. 2. The long and redundant procedure make sure you take days to fix 2 lines of code. which decreases your learning curve a lot. 3. Nearly zero hikes... here the company is destroying itself. They are not able to keep their good performers, and then they are hiring other employees .. who don't have any clue about the product. 4. Changing team or projects is very very difficult. 5. Lot of system testing is done by the developers coz they are told that the testers are busy. Thus you would be wasting your whole day testing an end to end flow in some random environment.

Pros

Did Presales SC work at Oracle for four years. Amazing people when I started, great place to build a network and meet people. Highly recommend for people EARLY in their careers looking for somewhere to learn and jump from. Field sales you get to work from home. Still has a good name, good place to leave and find another job from.

Cons

Expect to live on your base salary forever. Field sales numbers are terrible, dont ever expect a good bonus. Even when a good quarter happens, you get shafted on the bonus. Most of the best people have left, morale is horrible, and the products are really quite bad outside of core technology. You will be stuck reviewing SR's all the time because support is terrible, and you will get verbally beat up by dissatisfied customers that are making decisions to move off your tech. Your base will never increase, and your benefits will not be any good. Years of hard work and amazing production will be awarded with things like gift cards for amazon.com and a free dinner with your family, but no raises or bonuses. No innovation in the technology, more and more being outsourced to China and India, and for US more being done through interns/college hires. Management is not empowered to change the situation even though they know it.
