Pros

Liberal expense accounts. Not much more. Benefits are expensive, stock purchase plan only gives 5% break. Executives (Larry, mark and safra) only care about themselves.

Cons

Train wreck of an organization. Hurd is lowering cost of sales and it shows in results to Wall Street. Sucks for sales person. I have never been so broke. He makes 52m a year — that is 200k a day. Equally as competitive internally as externally. Self service model where default is blame the employee. Run...

Pros

So it was great at the beginning, competitive salary, great benefits, and what not.

Cons

Then Oracle comes in and buys NetSuite. Oracle is a silent assassin that slowly pushes away loyal employees of NetSuite - by taking away great stuff that we had like perks (SuiteAchievers) and changing the way annual increase works. I have been given responsibilities that I never signed up for - I wish I could say I could take that as a challenge - but with my current salary? I'm so underpaid for this.

Pros

Oracle is a juggernaut in the industry. Very successfully transitioning to be the premier cloud provider. Flex work allows people to work from their home office.

Cons

Customers don’t like us. Terribly bureaucratic processes that make customers jump through hoops just to do business with them. Focus is exclusively on revenue. The customer’s best interest is always put second. Oracle consulting services (OCS) has a terrible reputation with customers and software reps alike. Most software reps flat out refuse to include OCS in their deals because they’ve been burned too many times in the past. Most definitely make no distinction between leadership and management. Being a manager makes you a leader by default at the lower ranks when their role is purely to manage forecast and kick news up the chain of command. My manager has had 100% attrition on his team since he started in his ‘leadership’ role and the upper echelons refuse to acknowledge that he is the main reason that people are leaving. Constant threats of loosing your job, people are totally expendable. Condescending, arrogant and verbally abusive is a way of life at least in OCS.
