Pros

You have a job! but you have to make ends meet.

Cons

Sr. Executives are the highest paid in the area while most of the employees are the lowest paid! If you work at Oracle, do not expect any raises or bonuses unless you are a top executive. Do not take my word for it, just ask anyone working or was working at Oracle.

Pros

Nothing. If you are lucky, you will be placed in a territory that actually generates revenue through effective prospecting, has license renewals that will help achieve quota, and get scored with a great manager (although those are hard to come by in sales orgs at Oracle). You will also learn how to deal with idiotic customers, and idiots around you. Oh, and snail-paced internal processing. No work from home policy.

Cons

Too many to list. As a college hire from a top school, I can thank Oracle Sales for making me lose all of my brain cells by being surrounded by co-workers who have never read a book in their lives (minus us overqualified college hires from top schools). Surrounded by lower-tiered school hires because sales execs running the Sales Academy program went there (not going to name them), which meant working with bros and bimbos. Managers are just there to get to field positions and could care less about you. As long as you are making money, they make money. Also be prepared to be presented with unrealistic and un-achievable quotas. Like the rest of us you can still bust your butt and not be successful-- which is also another harsh reality of sales.

Pros

Nothing really. The introduction Training. After that it's downwards a long way.

Cons

- Worst management ever. Take no responsibility. - Politics. - Treat you like cattle. - Disregard cultural difference. - MicroManagement. - Dinosaurs. - Management with Alcohol problems in Dublin. - Corrupt, as managers protect each other, despite clear signs of inability and mistreatment of employees.
